An early precedent for multi-disciplinary and participatory urban & regional transformation project... A Planning and Urban Design Lesson from 90s by Middle East Technical University in colloboration with Ankara Municipality (I mean the governing administration at the time)... A Shopping Arcade and Cultural Complex around Hacıbayram Square in Ankara Turkey (by architect Prof.Dr. C.Abdi Guzer under the coordination of City Planner Prof.Dr. Raci Bademli)..
