With the effect of all these, a new spatial organizations emerged for the upper income group. The effects of this period were observed in the Ottoman Empire, too. The empire was open to the innovations with the declaration of the Tanzimat Edict. Naturally, cities have been directly affected by the new reforms and policies. Therefore, a transformation process has started in the Ottoman city structure. Izmir and Chios were important port cities for Western Anatolia. Especially Izmir became the most important port city after Istanbul with the construction of the railway.

The general purpose of this thesis is to examine the suburban characteristics of the selected areas Buca, Bornova and Kampos while looking at the urban pattern of Izmir and Chios in 19th century.
