The lecture of the architect Valid Karakabi on the topic "100 years of the Bat Galim neighborhood". Members of the association for the history of Haifa, as well as the general public, are invited to hear about the history of the only Haifa neighborhood in Haifa whose houses kiss the sea. A neighborhood full of rich history, which has managed to maintain its extraordinary character over the years, thanks to its physical separation from the city. But in recent years, an urban renewal has been going through, which is even provoking sharp debates and many controversies around it.

  1. I arrived with another friend after a particularly long trip, there was no room in the hall, I would suggest sending the content of the lecture to us and those who were not able to hear the lecture (there were many)
    Greetings: Nice wheat

  2. Bat Galim in Haifa is a wonderful neighborhood. Happy holiday to you Bat Galim. Have a nice evening.

  3. The topic is very interesting. Can I get a link to the zoom of the lecture? Or an address for her YouTube recording?

  4. Maybe stop whining and trashing the city, the descriptions are exaggerated. You are shooting yourself in the foot.
    It is true that there is a catastrophic mayor who should and must be fired!
    It's true that things got stuck because of her! But the charm of Bat Galim cannot be erased,
    And it is true that the sector also comes to enjoy Bat Galim, so what?! Coexistence !
    Everything is in the eye of the beholder! Sephardic Ashkenazi Arab racism has always been there especially during the Mapai period, today it has become stronger. Grumbling and whining and nothing moves is not helpful

  5. Opinion of a native and resident of the place: Until about a decade ago, it was pleasant to walk around the Bat Galim Promenade, get on the cable car and go into the Tivata in the city or to the restaurants and ice cream parlor at the end. In the past, mainly from the sector. On the other hand, they arrive en masse in cars from all over the north. Some of them occupy parking spaces in the neighborhood, some of the young people make noise until the night hours and in general it is much less pleasant and for sure there are groups and families of Arabs at night, it is unpleasant to write and say this but it is the truth. Similar processes are happening in the areas More in Haifa
    And in the north, which is unfortunate. Because of the "coexistence" the Jews are less likely to come. But there is also optimism about the neighborhood itself, in recent years it has succeeded in attracting young tenants who give it joy and life, and real estate prices in the neighborhood have risen greatly. In my opinion, the state should encourage young people who have served in the army and want to settle in the neighborhood and raise families and help them with rent or interest-free mortgages and restore the neighborhood Lymia the beautiful.

    • I didn't mean to offend and say God forbid that Arabs are not welcome on the promenade (or anywhere else in the city) and military servants or Jews are, that each person chooses to hang out where he wants and that is his right, I rather wanted to ask that there be more police and security forces in the evening in general on the beaches to give the residents a sense of security. The same goes for the rest The places that I have written down processes, the intention is for young people to spend time and drink alcohol, and drive wildly and make noise on the road, that there will be more police presence and a sense of security for the residents.. Thanks and apologies to those who may not have understood and were hurt by the text

  6. A neighborhood with too many hazards, which unfortunately only multiply and do not move.
    There is no prospect of moving the BHD. Not even in another 30 years. And in the meantime electrification will put us behind huge fences in front of the whole neighborhood.

  7. What does the future hold for her??

    An Arab future of the Islamic Jihad, what will the future hold for the north?!?!

  8. Bat Galim is a wonderful neighborhood. Many of Haifa's residents came to live there. And if they didn't live, they would come to the pool or the casino at the time. And then to the wonderful fish restaurants there. When I was little, they used to come for ice cream at a cafe in Bat Galim and there was also a man who sold wet and delicious lupines that we devoured. Bat Galim has lost some of its former greatness and it is imperative to restore its glory and greatness. There are not many places in the world with the possibility of such an experience as there is in Bat Galim along the entire boardwalk to the cable car. There was a period of prosperity and once again everything faded and it is a great shame that it is obligatory to return to the place his contribution to the charming old ones.

    • A third world neighborhood, filthy and crime-ridden.
      Even the first line to the sea fails to clear its reputation, it is a garbage dump on its apartments and streets.
