Remember when we promised to share more about the Khoury Compound? Here’s the full story. Between Wadi Nisnas and Hadar lies an 11-dunam site spanning both sides of Khoury Street, at the meeting point of two neighborhoods with distinct identities, rich histories, and diverse communities. For years, the site was occupied by parking lots, garages, and a gas station, uses that contributed little to the surrounding urban environment or to the daily life of the neighborhoods around it. We see an opportunity to rethink the site as a connector between Wadi Nisnas and Hadar. Our approach is to develop it in a way that responds to the character and needs of the surrounding communities, while contributing to the broader urban fabric and quality of life in the area. The site also has an important historical dimension. In 1908, the Khoury family built a grand palace nearby. Over time, the palace was damaged and eventually replaced by Migdal HaNevi’im. One structure from the original estate remains today within the project area. Preserving this history, and finding a new role for that surviving building, has become an important part of how we are thinking about the site and its future uses. From the outset, we wanted to understand the place before deciding how to shape its future. Together with neighborhood representatives and the local authority, we mapped community needs and explored how the site could become active even during the interim-use phase. This led to a collaboration with the Haifa-based Hamigdalor group, with whom we are currently transforming the former gas station area into a new culture and community space designed for events, gatherings, and local initiatives. Looking ahead, our goal is to create a mixed-use environment that brings together housing, employment, street-level commercial activity, and high-quality green public space, while respecting the area’s history and unique character. A key principle is connectivity: linking the project back into the city through a walkable network and connections to Haifa’s historic stairways. We’re excited about what’s ahead and look forward to sharing more as the project develops. Read more about the project >> https://lnkd.in/dnbbNpZZ
