- Narrative
- This shack is the kind of dwelling common to the early days of Turkey's rural-urban migration. As time passed, however the city proper grew to swallow up the outlying shantytowns, replacing such shacks with concrete apartment buildings. It seems that the shanty isn't inhabited anymore. Instead, someone is using it to advertise a shoe repair shop across the street.
- Satellite dishes and mid-size cars indicate a certain prosperity.
