Major Reconstruction of the “Binyanei HaUma” Complex in Jerusalem Approved

The District Planning and Building Committee has approved a major reconstruction project for one of Jerusalem’s most iconic landmarks — the Binyanei HaUma complex.

According to the approved plan, the site will allow the construction of buildings up to 40 floors high.

The project includes:

• a new international-level congress center;
• a hotel with 200 rooms;
• a senior residence with 300 apartments;
• office spaces of approximately 75,000 m²;
• public and cultural-educational facilities covering 45,000 m²;
• commercial areas of nearly 30,000 m².

The plan also involves the renovation of facades and modernization of urban infrastructure in the area.

Experts believe the reconstruction will strengthen Jerusalem’s status as a hub of business and culture in Israel, while creating new opportunities for tourism, commerce, and employment.
