Architectural, Planning, and Structural Solutions of Architectural Monuments in Historic City Centers (A Case Study of Kokand City)

Abstract

This article presents a systematic analysis of the historic core and traditional mahalla residential structures of Kokand, one of the oldest urban planning centers in the Fergana Valley. Specifically, using the examples of European architecture from the late 19th and early 20th centuries in the city - namely the Vadyaev and Potelyakov houses, and the Russo-Asiatic Bank buildings - the study scientifically substantiates the issues of adaptive reuse of historic architectural heritage for modern life (functional adaptation), preserving their historical-artistic value, and maintaining the intactness of the quiet internal ecosystem of adjacent traditional mahallas.
