Jerusalem is set to see a significant development in the Givat Ram area, with the District Planning and Building Commission approving a plan for a new residential complex. The plan, located near the Hebrew University and the Kosel Sports Center, will establish approximately 450 housing units on a 15-dunam site. Of these, 400 will be designated for long-term rental, including 180 small apartments of up to 55 square meters, aimed at students, young people, and small households. The complex will feature two 20-story towers and additional buildings ranging from seven to ten stories. The proximity to the Hebrew University campus is expected to make the project particularly attractive to students. The development also includes plans for kindergartens, community spaces, open areas, and ground-floor retail. A new public space with accessible pathways and a connection to a nearby urban square is also planned for the entrance to the Givat Ram campus. The plan was submitted by the Jerusalem Municipality and Union Company Ltd. and is currently in the deposit stage, awaiting final approval.
