The development is organized around street-concept stores, restaurants, cafés, social venues, open plazas, and pedestrian promenades. This approach goes beyond the closed shopping-mall model to create a lifestyle environment integrated with the city. A flexible spatial organization has been adopted to carry intense office use during the day into evening and weekend social life.
Distinctive aspects of the project:
Mixed-use focus: Integrated planning of retail, gastronomy, and public spaces
Pedestrian-priority design: Open spaces, plazas, and uninterrupted circulation axes
Finance-center integration: Direct relationship with office towers and public buildings
Urban quality of life: Bringing work, socialization, and events together in one center
Once completed, Istanbul Finance Center – Retail and Lifestyle Areas will transform Ataşehir from merely a business district into one of the Anatolian side’s most important social and commercial attraction points. The project is positioned as a sustainable and high-quality urban focus that supports Istanbul’s vision as a global financial center.
