Abstract
The architectural identity of a city is shaped by the group of buildings which emerged from various inputs. The main demonstration of having an identity is the harmony and consistency. The continuity of circumstances which shape the identity is formed by the continuity of certain conditions. These conditions can be negatively affected by events especially war but also by the quality of life and the environment. The main aim of this paper is to analyze the identity of Nicosia, which was seriously affected by the war of 1974, from the past until today. The data will be evaluated and solutions will be proposed.
