The City of Sile lies northeast of the municipality of Istanbul. A system of infrastructure driveway makes it quick connection to Istanbul through the D020, allowing it to reach the city in just 30 minutes. Sile overlooking the Black Man and is located within a “band” green that characterizes the entire northern part of the peninsula of Istanbul. The project will have to deal with this important aspect of this nature for its proximity to the coast and the wooded areas will be exploited as elements of great quality that characterize both the new residences that the new convention center.
