Neve Chen, which belongs to the Kfar Shalem cluster of neighborhoods, is situated along HaTayasim Road. The old small apartment buildings in the neighborhood are being torn down and replaced by hi-rises.

Located in southeastern Tel Aviv, north of Menachem Begin Park (Darom Park) and Haim Barlev Road, this neighborhood was founded upon the ruins of the Arab village Salama after it was deserted in 1948, and populated with immigrants. The neighborhood is undergoing a gentrification process, with old village homes making way for tall buildings. For that reason, certain parts of the neighborhood where the remnants of the old village still exist suffer from neglect, and the housing prices in the neighborhood are considered low, despite being a quiet neighborhood close to Menachem Begin Park and Edith Walfson Park.

The neighborhood is located in the southeastern part of Tel Aviv. Its borders are: Yitzhak Sade Street to the north, Moshe Dayan Road to the east, HaHagana Road to the south and Ayalon Highway to the west. La Guardia is its main thoroughfare, crossing the entire neighborhood from east to west. The Menora Mivtachim Arena and the shopping plaza surrounding it, coupled with the proximity to Wolfson Park, are helping to change the neighborhood’s image and make it a viable residential choice, especially for young couples. A policy plan that was prepared for Yad Eliyahu incorporates the addition of many housing units without compromising its green and tranquil nature. As part of that plan, La Guardia Street will be transformed from a major thoroughfare to a vibrant urban street. The zoning plans currently being promoted in Yad Eliyahu are already implementing that policy, and will in the coming years contribute to the neighborhood’s development. There are parking lots in the area as well as parking arrangements on the streets for residents and visitors.

This neighborhood is located in southeast Tel Aviv, south of HaTikva neighborhood and Lekhi St., and north of Menachem Begin Park. The neighborhood was established by immigrants for Arab countries, before the founding of the State of Israel. The neighborhood is characterized by low buildings, and its population is mostly of a low socioeconomic status. The neighborhood has been undergoing a process of revival and rehabilitation in recent years, with old structures giving way to tall buildings.

These two neighborhoods are in the southeastern part of the city, south of Bar Lev Road that separates them from Kfar Shalem, and close to Park Darom, which serves as an urban and metropolitan recreational area. Yedidya, a small neighborhood built on the site of the former Arab village Salame, is characterized by single-story homes constructed on large, unregulated lots. Levana is characterized by compact construction of 3- and 4-story buildings, south of which there are makeshift, single-story homes near the park.

The park was opened to the public in 1988 and was first named Darom Park (“South Park”) after its location in southern Tel Aviv. It is now known as Menachem Begin Park. Maintenance and operation is done by the Ganei Yehoshua Company in charge of the Yarkon Park. The park is located northeast of Ayalon River, between Mikveh Israel’s agricultural fields and the HaArgazim neighborhood. Designed by landscape architect Zvi Dekel, the park stretches across 1000 dunams, though currently only 500 of which are developed. In the future, this park is planned to be incorporated with the Ariel Sharon Park (Ayalon Park). In this park you’ll find Israel’s only cable skiing facility, as well as barbecue areas, a petting zoo, artificial lakes, grassy areas, and a roller skating rink.

The neighborhood is located in the southeastern part of Tel Aviv, between HaHagana Road to the north, Ayalon Highway to the west, Givati Street and Matzuva to the east, and Lehi Road to the south. The neighborhood’s main attraction is the HaTikva Market which draws many visitors. It also has a wide and colorful variety of Middle Eastern restaurants, most of which are found on Etzel Street. The HaHagana train station is located near the HaTikva neighborhood.

This residential neighborhood is located south of Derech Kibuts Galuyot, north of Ben Zvi Road, east of Tel Kabir, and west of Ayalon Highway. Its proximity to main roads allows convenient access. The main advantage in this neighborhood are the low housing prices. Its streets are narrow and winding, many of the structures are 1-2 stories tall, with some taller buildings as well. Easy access via Ayalon Highway. Personal safety level is adequate. This neighborhood is still waiting for a revolution that will enable it to join the “up-and-coming southern neighborhoods” club. Streetside parking (blue-and-white pavement).

The neighborhood borders on busy thoroughfares that connect Tel Aviv and Givatayim, where noise can be heard from the cars traveling on Givat HaTahmoshet Road and HaShalom Road, or those en route to the office towers and industrial zones on Yigal Alon and Yitzhak Sadeh streets. Within the neighborhood itself, most of the construction is comprised of multi-story apartment buildings occupied by families with children. The residential hi-rises that were built in recent years on land formerly used by factories (some the source of industrial pollution) have contributed to improved surroundings as well as an increased supply of apartments and public spaces. The neighborhood has a number of preschools, an elementary school (Ayalon), a mall, athletic center, and country club.

These neighborhoods border on busy thoroughfares that connect Tel Aviv and Givatayim, where noise can be heard from the cars traveling on Givat HaTahmoshet and HaShalom roads, or those en route to the office towers and industrial zone on Yigal Alon and Yitzhak Sadeh streets, where a number of business establishments, cafes and restaurants are located. However, once inside, this is a quiet suburb characterized by small, 1- and 2-story buildings that manage to give it a sense of tranquility. HaHaskala Boulevard, which crosses the two neighborhoods, can easily compete with any other boulevard in downtown Tel Aviv. Bizaron and Ramat Israel were chosen to be the first in the city where a neighborhood sustainability initiative will be implemented, which has been promoted by the Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality in recent years. As part of that initiative, HaHaskala Boulevard underwent development and upgrade works.
