Süzer Plaza, High-rise building in Harbiye, Şişli, Turkey
Süzer Plaza is a modern high-rise with 34 floors located in the Harbiye area of Istanbul's Şişli district. The structure combines office spaces with a luxury hotel, reflecting the blend of commercial and hospitality functions found throughout the city center.
The building was constructed between 1992 and 2000, facing significant legal challenges during its development and approval process. It represents a period when Istanbul underwent substantial urban expansion and modernization in its central districts.
The building represents the architectural transformation of Istanbul in the late 20th century, incorporating both office spaces and The Ritz-Carlton hotel.
The location offers good transportation links and is surrounded by shopping centers and restaurants in the city center. Visitors can easily reach public transit options and explore the surrounding area on foot.
The land where the building stands was classified as non-constructible during the Ottoman period under Sultan Abdulhamid II. This restriction made the eventual construction of this modern tower a surprising transformation for this part of the city.
