Just to let you know, Gecekondu generally refers to high rise, low cost and low quality apartment buildings that were built in little time with no regard for safety. Thats because land is quite expensive and there isnt much room available in the cities. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Teccen (talk • contribs) on 14 April 2006.
