Introduction: Tehran Railway Square, one of the capital’s most important transportation hubs with a long history, holds great potential to become a vibrant and memorable place. However, despite efforts to renovate and improve its physical quality, it has yet to transform into a genuine place with a deep sense of place.
Objective: This article aims to examine the sense of place in Tehran Railway Square from the perspective of Vendors and local workers, seeking to answer the questions: From their viewpoint, how effective have the renovation interventions been in shaping and enhancing the sense of place? And how can a place-making approach be applied to create a better space in this square?
Methodology: To achieve this objective, a qualitative research method was used, including semi-structured and visual interviews.
Findings: The findings indicate that physical interventions have not positively impacted the sense of place, and in some cases, have had the opposite effect. This was also evident in identifying users’ environmental preferences, revealing that aesthetic interventions failed to meet the core needs of space users, who in fact had different preferences and requirements.
Conclusion: As a result of the findings, the study proposes an improved place-making model to enhance spatial quality and sense of place in Tehran Railway Square, emphasizing the necessity for urban interventions to adhere to the principles of “true functionalism.”
