The Site is the Greek Triangle in Jaffa.
We decided to create an area that would be "The beating heart" of the new Greek market.
The ambition was to produce a magnet for both the residents and the visitors.

The Urban Market
Abandoned buildings and areas have negative cultural consequences. Some are magnets for crime, destroying the neighborhood and the social fabric of the community, Causes a decrease in their value and the value of the property in their environment, represents a waste of resources and also creates a sanitary and safety hazard.
As a case study, I chose "Hadar Carmel" neighborhood in Haifa. The neighborhood was a commercial and cultural hub. Over the years, a significant deterioration began in the neighborhood. Hadar neighborhood, which was the heart of Haifa, lost its positive image and became a crime neighborhood.
I chose to place the market in this neighborhood in order to "restore the old crown" and attract a large public of visitors to the area and thus help in its restoration.

Right To The City
In 1967, Henri Lefebvre coined the term "the right to the city" as a demand for a civic, egalitarian, and democratic participation in the city. In the era of Neoliberal Capitalism, the city has become an economic enterprise, functioning as an engine and a primary resource for capital accumulation and private entrepreneurship, and the claim for a "right to the city" resurfaces.
In this reality, the city is advanced by private stakeholders who create projects for show, instead of caring for more mundane issues. Such processes result in the commercialization of the city as a physical space and impair urban life.
This project proposes a scenario in which the city takes a different shape from the one formed by the entrepreneurs, using Tel Aviv's northern CBD- a business center that includes office and residential buildings that host tens of thousands of people daily- as a case study. The replanning views the CBD as one unit, and creates an inviting, democratic space and brings the right to the city back to both the area's residents and employees and to visitors.
