Ataşehir is a municipality and district of Istanbul Province, Turkey.[1][2] Its area is 25 km2,[3] and its population is 423,127 (2022).[4] It is located at the junction of the O-2 and O-4 motorways on the Anatolian (Asian) side of Istanbul. Its neighbours are the districts of Ümraniye to the north, Sancaktepe to the northeast, Maltepe to the east, Kadıköy to the south and Üsküdar to the west.
Since 2023, Ataşehir is home to the Istanbul Financial Center (IFC), where the new headquarters of the state-owned Turkish banks, such as the Turkish Central Bank, Ziraat Bank, VakıfBank and Halkbank, are located.[5] Until 2023, the headquarters of these banks were in Ankara. As of 2024, the tallest buildings in Ataşehir are the Шаблон:Convert Turkish Central Bank Tower,[6][7][8] which is followed by Metropol Istanbul Tower A (70 floors / 301 metres including its twin spires).[9][10][11]
Unlike in Başakşehir, another satellite city (on the western part of the European side of Istanbul), no single-family house types were designed for Ataşehir's residential projects. Most buildings in Ataşehir are high-rise towers, while some of them (especially around the main public squares in the district) are among Istanbul's and Turkey's tallest skyscrapers.
The M4 line (Kozyatağı and Yenisahra stations) of the Istanbul Metro serves the district.
