Özet: This study is an analysis of the green space structure proposed for Ankara by Prof. Dr. Hermann Jansen in the development plans of 1928 and 1932 and its implementation process between 1932 and 1960. The analysis is based on the study of the correspondence between Jansen and Ankara Development Directorate kept in the Plan Archive of Greater Ankara Municipality, and of Jansen’s development plan reports and his plans held in the Architectural Archive of the Library of the Technische Universität Berlin. Jansen proposed a green area system that was multi-functional and integral to the city, spreading out to the whole and extending beyond it. This system comprised of parks, sports facilities of varying sizes, scenic parks, recreational areas, rental gardens, a green belt and various types of green ways connecting them. During the implementation process, priority was given to the green spaces which supported the modernity project of the Republic. Other than those implemented in 1930s, the components of the green space structure were modified, losing their coherence, and only a series of parks were implemeted in the 1950s. In existing literature, Jansen’s development plans for Ankara have not been examined with a focus on his proposals for green areas and their implementation process. This study aims to contribute to Ankara studies by addressing that gap.
