A significant urban renewal project in Jerusalem's historic Haredi neighborhood has surpassed a key milestone, reaching over 70% of required signatures from property owners. The development, located at the intersection of Chana and Elkana streets in Block 80, is being advanced by real estate companies Atidore and Orbana. This achievement allows for the continued progression of planning and construction approvals.
In parallel, the developers have reached a binding agreement in principle with the administration of the Tchebin Yeshiva, located near the project site. This agreement clarifies principles regarding commercial spaces within the project, ensuring the preservation of the yeshiva's quiet environment. The negotiations, which lasted over six months, were led by Binyamin Meltzer, an owner of Atidore.
The project aims to construct modern residential buildings with high construction standards. The Union for Urban Renewal is assisting with resident management and initiatives. The companies stated that reaching the 70% signature threshold is a central milestone and that the understanding with the yeshiva demonstrates direct dialogue and respect for the neighborhood's character.
