Hutzot Yerushalayim Real Estate has achieved a significant milestone in urban renewal with the approval of its building plan (Taba) for a residential project at 6 Gemul Street in Jerusalem. The plan was validated in less than a year, marking an exceptionally rapid planning process. A key achievement accompanying the planning success is that the company secured signatures from 100% of the apartment owners before the Taba's approval, without resorting to any legal proceedings. This is considered a major accomplishment in urban renewal, where reaching consensus among all rights holders is often a primary challenge.
The project is situated in a desirable residential area in the heart of Jerusalem, near the city center, hotel complexes, and major tourist attractions. Its location, close to Jerusalem's historic area and overlooking the Old City, provides a unique real estate advantage, particularly given demand from non-resident buyers.
The approved plan involves demolishing the existing structure and constructing a new seven-story residential building above the entrance level, plus an additional underground floor. The total construction area will be approximately 1,630 square meters, with an additional 140 square meters allocated for balconies. The architectural design is by architect Miriam Abuhazira.
Yossi Schwartz, a co-owner of Hutzot Yerushalayim, commented on the achievement, emphasizing the timing of the owner consensus. He stated that securing full agreement from all apartment owners before the Taba's approval, and without legal action, demonstrates a deep level of trust between the company and the owners. Schwartz believes that urban renewal should be advanced through trust, transparency, and dialogue, rather than legal battles.
This approval adds to Hutzot Yerushalayim's portfolio of urban renewal projects across Jerusalem, including large-scale complexes and projects in prime urban locations. The company specializes in initiating, planning, and advancing urban renewal projects in the capital, managing a substantial pipeline of projects in various stages of planning, licensing, and execution. The company views the rapid approval and the 100% owner consent as a reflection of its ability to efficiently advance projects and provide certainty and trust to property owners.
