6,000 New Housing Units Planned for Jerusalem

6,000 new housing units for Jerusalem: The โ€œWhite Ridgeโ€ plan, led by the Israel Land Authority, covers approximately 250 acres in southwestern Jerusalem, of which the development area is 65 acres.

The area is on the southern slopes of the White Ridge in southwest Jerusalem, near the Ora Junction, with the land characterized by a topography with steep slopes and containing a KKL-JNF grove, several agricultural buildings and a gas station. The entire development is being carried out with sensitivity to the natural values in the vicinity of the plan, with an emphasis on the contact between the built-up area and open areas located on its edges.

The new residential neighborhood will include approximately 6,000 units, in a diverse mix, of which approximately 30% are small apartments (up to 80 square meters) and approximately 5% are very small apartments (up to 55 square meters). The residential density is proposed at approximately 55 units per net dunam in buildings of 8-24 floors, with the planning characterized by development along the slopes using elongated blocks, while creating a high-quality public space in their center, which includes green areas and active facades on the ground floors of the residential buildings.

At the center of the plan is planned an elongated public square that connects to the light rail station at the Ora Junction and a new employment center on its northern side with access to the green space and springs to the south, which includes employment, commercial, residential and special housing complexes. In addition, areas are designated for institutions and public buildings that take advantage of the steep topography to create a stepped construction of two schools, along with creating a soft encounter with the open spaces through a perimeter road and walking paths leading to parks in the area.
