Özet

Rapidly growing cities after the Industrial Revolution have become incapable to fulfi l the needs of the present-day. Furthermore, natural disasters such as earthquakes or fl oods and low-quality constructions have affected the healthy development of cities in a negative way. It is observed that the countries such as Turkey, where have experienced extensively disasters, have suffered severe physical, fi nancial and moral losses. Thus, urban renewal activities have also gained importance in Turkey after The Gölcük Earthquake (7.6Mw) and The Düzce Earthquake (7.2Mw) in 1999. In Kocaeli which was one of the cities experiencing hard collapses of these earthquakes, the fi rst urban regeneration projects completed in 2009. There is a wide range of urban transformation projects which are completed and continuing in Kocaeli. The examination of the sustainability principles in urban regeneration practices, which became a priority issue due to disaster risks, has also come into prominence. It has become a major subject that urban areas are designed not only to be resistant to disasters but also to fulfi l social, economic and ecological criteria.In this study, healthcare, green, transportation, educational and social areas of the fi rst and second urban regeneration area (approximately 77,0000 sqm) in Kocaeli are examined in terms of basic needs of the city. For this aim, zoning plans pre- and post- project are analysed by transferring to Geographic Information System. The areal changes in the above-mentioned needs are evaluated according to the changing population density and their suffi ciencies are comparedRapidly growing cities after the Industrial Revolution have become incapable to fulfi l the needs of the present-day.
