This house was built by an underrated Russian Israeli architect Yegosha Tabchnik. He wanted to create a unique Jewish style of architecture, but he didn’t get any support from fellow architects. By the mid 20’s he left British Palestine and moved to Brooklyn. This house was built by the order of the Barchat family and sold to this Russian family of dealers. Thanks to this family Nahalat Benyamin became a trade center in time. To this day there is a shop of curtains, famous and thriving through all these years.
From Lev HaYir parking to the Carmel market through Nakhalat Binyamin - the Friday market of handcraft: glass, wood, metal, ceramics. Jewelers and craftsmen, performances of street musicians, restaurants and cafes, children and adults. This partially restored, partially destroyed quarter of the old Tel Aviv has its own atmosphere of a carefree unhurried good neighborhood.
