Divided cities present an intriguing phenomenology in urban design where political and/or cultural circumstances lead to a schism in an otherwise holistic city. The consequence of such division is not only physically present, but also has a long lasting impression on communal and individual identity. This impact is further emphasized by local architecture and how the border is treated in each side of a division. This article uses the island city of Nicosia, Cyprus, located in the Mediterranean, as a case study to better understand how borders in divided cities relate to memory and identity establishment.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/120297/1/Mehdiabadi_DividedCities.pd
