Özet: The city in Turkey now known as Konuralp was important during the Ottoman period and is the site of the ancient city of Prusias ad Hypium. With a rich historical past in the Hellenistic period, Konuralp also has the legacy of the historical Ottoman city fabric in its vernacular architecture, as seen in its old plot and street patterns. At present, the site of the ancient residential area of Prusias ad Hypium and the neighborhoods nearby are under pressure from the new settlements created in the aftermath of the 1999 earthquake, as well as from the growth of the university. This study aimed to research the relationship between the changing demographic features and the sense of place amongst the new inhabitants of the neighborhoods which have changed since the 1999 Düzce earthquake and after the founding of the university campus. Accordingly, remarkable elements effect on the sense of place in these residential neighborhoods have been studied through quantitative methods and via a questionnaire.
