Mısır Apartment, Art Nouveau building on İstiklal Avenue in Beyoğlu, Istanbul, Turkey
The Mısır Apartment stands six stories tall with reinforced concrete construction, featuring organic forms and intricate decorative elements on its facade.
Built between 1905 and 1910 by architect Hovsep Aznavur, the structure served as a winter residence for Abbas II, the Khedive of Egypt.
The building housed notable Turkish figures, including national anthem writer Mehmet Akif Ersoy and poet Mithat Cemal Kuntay during the early 20th century.
The building contains art galleries, private apartments, and a restaurant on its terrace level, with direct access from İstiklal Avenue.
French specialists created the structural plans using materials imported from France, making it one of Istanbul's first reinforced concrete buildings.
