The HaRishonim neighborhood in Ramat Gan, formerly known as Elite due to its chocolate factory, is undergoing rapid development. Located near the Diamond Exchange and bordered by Aba Hillel, Rokach, and Bialik streets, the area is transitioning from old, low-rise buildings to newer, taller structures.
