Episode Details

Every article about Mahane Yehuda says the towers are coming for the shuk. They aren't — not one of the ten new towers approved or rising within a few minutes' walk sits on the market itself. What is happening is stranger: an 1890s kindergarten and the historic Beit Alliance building are being held up on piles while car parks are excavated beneath them. This episode digs into the actual construction around Jerusalem's most famous market — the Etz Chaim and Alliance phases, the Midtown project on the old Shaare Zedek site, the Davidka towers, who's buying the flats, and why the drilling won't stop until roughly 2031.
