Tel Aviv Approves Design Plan for 185 Housing Units in New Sde Dov District

The Tel Aviv Local Planning Committee has approved the design plan for a new residential and commercial project in the northern section of the Sde Dov district. The development, by Shikun & Binui Real Estate, will feature 185 housing units spread across two buildings: a 20-story residential tower and a 9-story building. The unit mix will include approximately 25% small, 25% medium, and 50% large apartments. The project also incorporates about 3,000 square meters of employment space in a four-story wing and 1,400 square meters of retail space on the ground floor, primarily along the street-facing facade. A community and swimming pool complex is planned for the roof of the employment wing, connected to the residential tower by a bridge. Additionally, the development will include 3.4 dunams (approximately 0.84 acres) of public open spaces, constituting about 60% of the plot, featuring shaded areas, courtyards, and walkways to ensure accessible passage between surrounding streets and a nearby city park. This approval marks a significant step towards realizing the project, which integrates housing, employment, and commerce in the developing Sde Dov area. The architectural design was handled by Yaski Mor Sivan Architects. Shikun & Binui stated the project is unique due to its proximity to the coastline, its location next to a light rail station, and its distinct Tel Aviv design, reflecting their vision for developing areas that meet housing needs alongside community life and an active urban environment. The company is now moving towards the licensing phase for a building permit.
