Going against the mainstream popularity of high-rise housing developments dominating the Turkish construction market in the late twentieth century, Haluk Baysal and Melih Birsel collaboratively built the Istanbul Yesilkoy Housing Community project in 1973 using the principles of modern architecture. Although the modern lifestyle dominant in the design of this housing project did not emerge from the principles of life inherent to Turkish domestic architecture, this study examines how this project could remain resistant to the destructive force of a possible earthquake in a location where the land value is higher than many other districts of Istanbul. This study’s research question is whether or not the survival of this residential housing community could be attributed to residential satisfaction. The study’s research method was a residential satisfaction survey and factor analyses. The results showed that the continued existence of the residential community in the midst of the urban transformation movement is because the community satisfied its residents’ needs for safety, centrality, and neighbourliness.

与 20 世纪后期主导土耳其建筑市场的高层住宅开发的主流流行相反，Haluk Baysal 和 Melih Birsel 于 1973 年利用现代建筑的原则合作建造了伊斯坦布尔 Yesilkoy 住宅社区项目。尽管在该住宅项目的设计中占主导地位的现代生活方式并非源于土耳其国内建筑固有的生活原则，但本研究考察了该项目如何在土地价值高的地方保持对可能发生的地震的破坏力的抵抗力高于伊斯坦布尔的许多其他地区。本研究的研究问题是该住宅社区的生存是否可以归因于住宅满意度。该研究的研究方法是住宅满意度调查和因素分析。结果表明，在城市转型运动中居住社区的持续存在是因为社区满足了居民对生活的需求。安全、中心性和睦邻。
