Herzog – Shimoney St. Compound, Old Katamon, Jerusalem
On the edge of Old Katamon, this compound will replace 80 apartments in 7 mid-rise buildings with approximately 260 new apartments in five 9 and 14 -story buildings
The deep slopped site built in two plateaus borders two streets, the lower a main vehicular route adjoining one of the Jerusalem’s main parks, where the upper a street connects the neighborhood’s apartment and public buildings. The design scheme rearranges the location of a new building to propose 12 story buildings with arcaded storefronts along the lower main road, and 8 story buildings along the upper street, all weaved by a network of pedestrian domain.
The design responds to Jerusalem’s stone-and-glass façade requirements offering varied balcony positions viewing the park for all apartments. The massing and urban interface define a contemporary residential compound in the Katamon district.
