Abstract :Th e cities of Roman Asia Minor are known for impressive public buildings. Scholarship has frequently focused on an imagined fi nal state for such structures, yet as enduring, costly undertakings these architectural projects lived complicated lives. Th ey evolved from original creation through repairs, alterations, reuse, destruction, rebuilding, decay, and demolition over many years. Multiple acts of building in prominent locations disrupted urban activities, blocking traffi c while generating noise and dust. Simultaneously, bustling construction sites and in-progress structures entertained the populace and continuously affi rmed Roman cultural values.
