Construction

Kasımpasa flour factory, one of the important industrial structures of its period, was built as a mill building during the reign of Sultan Abdulmecid in 1852. It became a complex construction with the addition of second and third warehouses in 1928. The building had masonry, steel, and wood construction techniques at the time it was built, also traces of reinforced concrete systems that were added later are seen in the building. There are decorative elements in the art nouveau style, which do not have a stylistic unity, these are arched doors and windows, stone jambs, and stone floor dividers on the facades of the building. Due to the deterioration of the structure and materials, the additions made from time to time, and the fact that it was empty for a long time, the structure was almost destroyed, and a certain part of the front facades remained standing. Today, the building is unusable in its current form.
