Hacımimi Gardens

Beyoğlu Heritage is a heritage restoration project in central Beyoğlu, focused on restoring 19th-century apartment buildings (Pera-era stone facades, ornate moldings, tall ceilings) to luxury contemporary living standards while preserving period character.

Beyoğlu — historically known as Pera ("Little Europe") — was the cosmopolitan European quarter of late Ottoman Constantinople, hosting embassies, the Pera Palace Hotel (1892, the city's first hotel with electricity, where Agatha Christie wrote Murder on the Orient Express), Galatasaray High School, and a generation of Levantine merchant families.

The restoration preserves protected facades, original parquet, decorative moldings, and tall French windows while integrating modern HVAC, smart home systems, and contemporary kitchens/bathrooms. Walking distance to İstiklal Avenue, Galata Tower, Galataport, and Karaköy waterfront — Istanbul's most concentrated cultural and gastronomic district.
