Abstract :
The objective of this study is to analyze the urban area that emerged after construction of Yavuz SelimBoulevard, in Trabzon City, Turkey. Cities contain many functional elements, such as businesses, gardens, parks,shops, medical and educational institutions, and transportation arteries such as roads, streets, boulevards, and avenues,which enable contact between all elements of a city. Cities change culturally, economically, and also physically andecologically. However, although urbanization provides convenience for people, it also has disadvantages, such ascausing a loss of natural features within the living space. In particular, changes made without appropriate design andplanning disrupt the spatial integrity. Ninety-two buildings are situated on the south and north sides of Yavuz SelimBoulevard. In this study, the front and frontages of buildings and the area of road associated with each building areexamined and spatial components are determined. In addition, building function and number of storeys, the differencesbetween elevations of the road and entrances of buildings, road width, and the structural and botanical landscapeelements are determined.
