Abstract
Urban development in Istanbul has passed through various phases of transformation. These transformations have generated very distinct changes on the urban face of the city. Large scale in-migration to the city from the hinterland, development and expansion of industrial and commercial land uses and concurrent transportation network, increase in the magnitude and density of middle and high income housing and rise in the squatter settlements are some of noted aspects of the urban development. This paper outlines the process of urban development across all the above outlined parameters drawing conclusions in the process. It also focuses the changing skyline of Istanbul on its waterfronts.
