The project examines the interaction of young people with the city and precisely the case of the entertainment of young adults in Nicosia. Youth in Nicosia represents 40% of the population, the biggest age group, thus Nicosia is classified as one of the cities with the largest young population. Entertainment is an important outdoor activity that has an effect on the evolution and growth of the city.

The subject of that research project is the city of Nicosia, which been developed after the Turkish invasion in 1974 and the division of the city into two parts, that have been developed differently. The Greek Cypriot city expanded to the south and included the urban areas that were previously out of context.

Since then, new universities have been established in the suburbs of the city in an effort to develop further more areas of Nicosia and introduce new facilities. For the purpose of this research project a web questionnaire was employed. Young adults were asked series of questions about the means of transportation they use and their preference in outdoor activities. Then, the data were been analyzed in order to reveal the choices of the target group for the different areas of the city.

Future architectural plans were also investigated, based on the existing plans to understand how the designs affect the habits of young citizens. The changes that will influence the city and whether these changes are in line with the habits of young people were also examined.

The impact of young citizens on their city, especially in Nicosia is vital.  Therefore, the results of this project conclude that development plans of Nicosia are in line with the young adults’ preference.
