- ↑ Nişantası was planned as a new town for the ottoman aristocracy in the early 19th century. Its strict layout according to a rectangular grid and the location to the north of Pera shows a parallel to the planning of Haussmann for the modern city of Paris. For its location on the hills, Nişantaşı was never subject to a drastic demographic change. Until today the social specificities of its inhabitants can be categorized as rather established middle class, so does the shopping environment assembled by expensive boutiques and globally exclusive fashion brands indicate. At early times the density of Nişantaşı was very low. Each building plot was planned for the construction of one Konak, a wooden city villa and some smaller secondary housing for the attendants and servants of the household. Over the decades and with the expatriation of the ottoman owners, the construction of Nişantaşı gradually changed into a block perimeter with a street facing façade and backyard garden. These backyards can still be found in Nişantaşı today. They have however shrunk more and more due to densification and an increase in building hights.

The construction of the first ring road and the development of the Büyükdere Cadessi into a main traffic artery with the construction of the Tarlabaşı Boulevard have turned Mecidiyeköy into a transit area.

Today most of these factories have been moved out of the city deconstructing the demographic relevancy of what was formerly a working class area. The recent construction of a tunnel connecting the valley of Kağıthane with the Maçka valley in Beşiktaş has layed the foundation for a future development in which Kağithane will play a central role as a location for international events and conferences on one hand and a high yield residential area in the closest proximity to the cities financial district. Recent developments such as Santral Istanbul and several architectural projects for lofts and modern apartment blocks in the area are indicators for this development.
- ↑ With the construction of the second ring road the land in close proximity to the motorway interchange Kavacık has increased drastically in value. In the 90s the old neighbourhood of Ümraniye started up a development trend that attracted many international firms, many new residential developments and shopping centers. These have created a new urban focal point accessible by car and connected with the rest of the city by its strategic location between the 2 Boshporus bridges. The area of Çekmeköy developed just outside the second ring road as an agglomeration of a new typology of housing that incorporates the trend of separating living, working and enjoyment, facilitated by the use of private transportation.
- ↑ Just outside the second ring road on the Asian side of the city Ataşehir is emerging in the middle of waiting lands to become İstanbuls new financial centre. The development of Ataşehir, was jump-started in 2007 when Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan instructed the corporate headquarters of several state owned banks to relocate from Ankara to Istanbul. Ataşehir is considered ideal for development as it is located at the intersection of Sabiha Gökçen Airport and Istanbul's new metroline, and on the main road between Istanbul and Ankara. Along with the development of a subcentre in Kartal, Ataşehir is planned to counterweight the expansion of Levent financial district and with it, the high number of commuters caused by a concentration of the business sector on the European side of the city while the Asian side functions predominantly as a sleepers town. The rapidly increasing land costs and the construction of landmark architecture have turned Ataşehir into a hotspot for property speculation. Luxury apartments in projects such as Merdian by the international architecture firm RMJM are dealt at top prices presenting a change of ownership as high as 7 times before construction is finalized.
