HaYarkon Street is a major street which runs roughly parallel with the coastline in Tel Aviv, Israel, carrying traffic north and south.
The Opera Tower on HaYarkon Street replaces a building from 1945 that housed the Kessem Cinema. In 1948, it became the home of Israel's First Knesset. Sessions were held there until the end of 1949, when the parliament moved to Jerusalem.[1]
The HaYarkon Street has several examples of Bauhaus,[2][3] or International Style architecture. One of the important examples is a building by HaYarkon 96, built in 1935 and reconstructed in 2012.
The Embassy of the United States was located on HaYarkon Street before its move to Jerusalem in May 2018. It continues to operate as a branch office.[4]
