Turgutreis Community Center is a public investment intending to refresh a coastal town’s memory which has lost its 1970s elegant fishing town characteristic by tourism, retiree migration and annuity housing transformation; besides seeking solutions for changing city demands by the time. While the initial design brief was limited to a typical multi-story car park planning to increase parking capacity of the town; building design program have been reassessed with local authority and more efficient architectural expression has been aimed. Design that revives neighbor park landscape and also covers over itself; that hides multi-story car park inside the building core; that includes craftsman ateliers and market halls enabling both local people and tourists to experience the local food/restaurant, has 8.000m² enclosed space. The project is going to be an alternative gathering and activity location with more than 15.000m² open-use area. The car park has opened in January 2023, commercial area leasing is going on.
