Developed as part of the urban regeneration initiatives undertaken by the Housing Development Administration of Türkiye (TOKİ) and the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization, the project aims to revitalize the commercial areas destroyed by the 2011 Van earthquakes in the center of Erciş. Covering a 34,900 m² site with a total construction area of 60,560 m², it comprises 407 shops, 48 offices, and covered parking for 490 vehicles. Reinterpreting traditional bazaar culture for contemporary needs, the design incorporates courtyards, public squares, pedestrian streets, and landscaped areas to create a human-scale urban center supporting both commercial activity and social life.
