The people’s efforts were fruitful and the court ordered the cancellation of the project in June 2012. Despite the annulment, the Council of Ministers ordered urgent expropriation for Fener-Balat-Ayvansaray. The FEBAYDER didn’t give up on the case and it was ruled that the execution of the project be suspended in May 2013, and in September, the Council of State annulled the expropriation order. The case concluded with the İstanbul 1st Administrative Court cancelling the Fener-Balat-Ayvansaray conservation development plan that included the Fener-Balat-Ayvansaray renewal project. The Balat residents took a deep breath in the face of the destruction threat, however, what the urban transformation couldn’t achieve would be achieved through social transformation.
FEBAY-DERê dev ji dozê berneda û di sala 2013an de pêkanîna projeyê bi biryara dadgehê ve dan sekinandin. Di meha Îlonê de jî Dadgeha Şêwirmendiyê biryara xistina malê dewletê betal kir. Di sala 2014an de 1. Dadgeha Îdareyê ya Stenbolê pilana îmarsaziyê ku projeya Fener-Balat-Ayvansarayê jî di nav de bû, bi temamî betal kir û doz bi vî rengî bi dawî bû. Gelê Balatê li hemberî tehlûkeya hilşandina taxê êdî rehet bûn. Lêbelê yê ku bi guhertina bajêr ve pêk nehat, niha bi guhertina civakê ve pêk tê.
