- In 2006, The 1000-year-old neighborhood of Sulukule in Istanbul was the victim of Urban Transformation. The residents, most of whom were Roma, had their houses demolished illegally and were forced to buy TOKIs social housing apartments in Taoluk, 40 km away from their neighborhood. Hoping to own a house, the tenants reluctantly accepted to move there. The majority who couldnt afford the installments moved back to areas near Sulukule. The ones remaining in Taoluk can barely manage. Today fancy villas of the rich have replaced the 1000-year old neighborhood. Who has profited from this transformation?
