| description | Public space is an essential symbol of connection and integrity for both citizens and cities, serving as a platform for interaction and shared experiences. Among public spaces, coastal areas hold significant importance as they facilitate integration between citizens and water, offering opportunities for transportation and recreational activities. This paper aims evaluating complexity on public space in waterfront in comparison with the two side in Istanbul based on Carmona’s classification. The study utilizes a comparative analysis based on land use data from the analysis by using Geographic Information System (GIS). Land use data, in essence, provides embedded information on accessibility. By analysing these classifications, the paper seeks to shed light on the similarities and differences in the public space characteristics and public access between the coastal areas of the Bosphorus District. Preliminary findings indicate that the positive space characteristics in both sides are comparable. However, the ratio of ambiguous and private spaces varies due to historical factors, property ownership and land use patterns. These influence the nature and accessibility of public spaces, thereby contributing to the observed diversity along the waterfront. The study's findings have implications for urban planning and the development of inclusive public spaces in coastal areas. |
