              One view's better than the other's. 

In the Fatih section of Istanbul, one of the city's oldest 
neighborhoods, it is not unusual to see extra stories
atop buildings that have been added illegally.  However (!)
the sight of two additional stories on top of one another
has raised eyebrows. 

Yıldız Technical University's Dr. Abdullah Akca, a professor
of construction engineering, explained that "With the amnesty
law that came out in 2018, many such buildings were legally
registered.  This, of course, does not mean that the risk that
such structures pose magically disappears.  (!)
