| Abstract: | Integrated strategic urban planning in many cities and countries, as well as 
analysis of current situation in local development, urban transformation and 
urban conservation together with the participation of all stakeholders in 
various activities, poses an impact on the success of a project. It is 
possible to create a useful model with the participation of local people and 
other stakeholders in the use of urban space, conservation of areas and 
monuments of natural and historical value and in this way, the success of 
sustainable urban revitalization at the local level can be improved. In order 
to develop sustainable approaches to the conservation and revitalization of 
archaeological, historical and urban areas, it is necessary to increase 
compliance with local community values, contemporary needs, public 
participation and stakeholder satisfaction levels. Because, in the analysis of 
urban development, conservation and real estate projects through a strategic 
planning approach with the participation of local people and the private 
sector is considered among the main conditions for ensuring the sustainability 
of projects. In recent years, importance and priority have been given to the 
analysis of open and green areas, parks, conservation areas and urban 
transformation implementation projects in cities, and integrating strategic 
planning model has adding value in the process. In the city centre of Ankara 
province, which is the capital of Turkey, there are several large areas among 
which the most important is Ataturk Cultural Center (AKM) area, which is an 
historical centre of the city in the Zubeyde Hanm neighborhood of Altindag 
District. In this study, physical, economic, legal, social and environmental 
indicators of Atatürk Cultural Center area were determined. In addition to 
ensuring the preservation and development of historic urban spaces, 
opportunities for the development of an adequate and effective strategic model 
and practice-based management tools were evaluated. In the analysis of AKM 
case study, the relationship between the historical development and the 
environment of the area was revealed by using the current situation analysis 
and region data. Based on historical and cultural characteristics and 
stakeholder views of the area, current use of status and problem analysis of 
region called the green belt and historical city centre of Ankara Province was 
conducted. With the data obtained, the difference/gap analysis related to the 
region was performed and the possible risks were examined in various aspects. 
In addition to the survey work, project alternatives were determined by taking 
into account the property and zoning data related to the region, the 
historical, cultural and symbolic characteristics of the region, and the most 
appropriate alternative was selected using the Analytical Hierarchy Process 
(AHP). According to the most appropriate alternative, market and 
competitiveness conditions were examined, and strategic goals were determined 
at the real estate level by taking into account the compatibility of the 
project alternative with the relevant existing corporate-macro strategic 
plans. According to the income-generating approaches included in the selected 
project, the path of cost and income estimation was taken and the outline of 
the strategic action plan was presented by designing the process for the 
strategic spatial plan. According to the research results, it has emphasized 
that in real estate development project model with the strategic planning 
approach, competitive real estate markets and the functioning logic of the 
current region for sustainable (economic, environmental and social) impacts, 
the potentials and benefits should be taken into account. According to the 
results of the field study, it has revealed that the AKM area should be a 
cultural centre by function; and if integrated with its surroundings, 
especially the historical city centre it will have a modern appearance that 
preserves its historical and cultural nature. In addition, according to the 
results of the competitor analysis and gap analysis, it was determined that 
the project alternative envisaged to be carried out in the region has a 
competitive advantage and is compatible with the strategic plans already in 
practice. The fact that the strategic action plan is compatible with the 
results of fieldwork shows that the strategic planning approach is consistent 
in itself. Finally, monitoring and evaluation of the strategic plan with the 
perspective of 10P model for providing corporate level action. In addition, 
considering that corporate real estate needs to be increasingly integrated 
into business strategy, it should be emphasized that corporate real estate 
strategy and corporate strategy should be harmonized in specialized areas such 
as AKM. |
