Haydarpasa tågstation, belägen vid kajen i Kadikoy, påbörjade sin konstruktion den 30 maj 1906 under den osmanske sultanen Abdulhamit II:s styre. Den färdigställdes och togs i bruk den 19 maj 1908 av två tyska arkitekter och 1500 italienska stenhuggare. Sultan Selim III beslutade att namnge distriktet och dess omgivningar Haydarpasa som en gest till Haydar Pasha, som bidrog mycket till byggandet av Selimiye-kasernen som bär hans namn. Därför blev stationsbyggnaden känd som Haydarpasa.

Byggandet av byggnaden utfördes av ett tyskt företag vid namn Anadolu Baghdad. Dessutom byggdes, på tyskt initiativ, en vågbrytare framför stationen, och faciliteter uppfördes för att lasta och lossa kommersiella varor från vagnar som kom från eller skulle till Anatolien. Vidare byggdes silos för att lagra de kommersiella varor som transporterades med tåg till och från Anatolien.

Stationsbyggnaden, som är den första platsen där de flesta resenärer möter Istanbul och den magnifika utsikten, är faktiskt ett klassiskt exempel på tysk arkitektur. Sett från ovan visar byggnaden en form som liknar bokstaven "U" med en lång och en kort sida. Det finns stora rum med högt i tak i byggnaden.

Båda grenarna av de "U"-formade korridorerna där rummen är belägna ligger på landsidan. Det inre utrymmet skapar en innergård. Byggnaden uppfördes på 1 100 träpålar, var och en 21 meter långa. Dessa pålar slogs ner med tidig 1900-talsteknik, det vill säga med en ångdriven ram. Huvudstrukturen av byggnaden vilar på ett pålnät som placerats på dessa pålar.

Den mycket stabilt byggda stationsbyggnaden är osannolik att skadas ens vid en kraftig jordbävning. Taket på byggnaden är av trä och utformat som ett 'brant tak', en stil som ofta används i klassisk tysk arkitektur.

Kanske en av de mest slående men tyvärr tragiska minnena i Haydarpasa-stationens historia är sabotaget som organiserades av en brittisk spion den 6 september 1917. Som ett resultat av den brittiska spionens sabotage i ammunitionsvagnarna som väntade vid stationen inträffade en stor explosion och en brand utbröt. Hundratals soldater på tågen drabbades hårt av denna explosion och den brand som följde. Det sägs till och med att fönstren på hus i Kadıkoy och Selimiye krossades på grund av explosionens kraft.
