Jerusalem New City Architecture: The British Mandate Legacy
The Jerusalem New City (the most comprehensively stone-built single Israeli city due to the most consistently enforced single British Mandate building ordinance requiring the most locally quarried single Jerusalem limestone cladding on every single building constructed in the most architecturally regulated single Levant colonial city), preserves the most architecturally coherent single British Mandate-era limestone street network and the most historically instructive single colonial-period Jerusalem urban landscape.
