Gocek, a building site !

I can't beleive some of the things they do in Turkey, for anyone who knows Gocek, it's a nice place with lot's of character. Imagine my horror when we visited last week and saw that the main street leading down to the marina had been pulled down, only to be replaced by rows of identical double glazed boxes.

there is a big row about this in the press, I read it on another forum.  Done without permission from the big bosses in Ankara or somewhere who had given express instructions that building in the Gocek area should be restricted to preserve the character.

Gocek is now going thru the mass building stage as Ovacik, Hisaronu, Calis has. Will Fethiye and Gocek in years to come be joined by housing??:(

I think you have a point Dippey.. I mean how many times have you heard people say 'I remember when this was all fields' It could be just one big city one day. Vile.
