Project Description
FROM AIAGA:
Located just north of
Istanbul, Turkey, the importance of the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge and its remarkable setting
presents an extraordinary opportunity: a new public park anchoring the bridge on two
continents with the power to connect people to Turkey’s rich history, to the natural landscape,
and to each other. The team worked passionately to create a vision for the park that would be
both respectful of Turkish history yet forward looking; a unique and memorable place with
strong roots and a compelling future. The design concept integrates three key themes:
Connecting Places, Performance Landscape and Enriched Experiences.
