Description
Summary:This study seeks to obtain basic knowledge about structural changes in the period of urban maturation by understanding the changes in real structures at urban development areas in suburbs developed during the urban expansion period. In this study, existing inland industrial estates in a suburb were studied, with the main focus being the changes in spatial composition and the development processes of the changes. It is argued that changes in the areas induced recycled utilisation of sites, and consequently contributed to maintaining the sustainability of the area.
