[@TV-vz7rf]

An underrated aspect of construction in Israel is how slow it is much of the time. Given the rich history of the region, there’s almost always some archeological site dug up whenever they’re trying to build something, and projects often get shelved because there turned out to be some ancient ruin where you wanted to build your parking lot.

[@LO-dm6uf]

That's ironic since they demolished entire cities to build the new ones, but they apparently care about historic ruins?? They got their priorities fucked

[@Arikanda]

The real slow down comes from bureaucracy. The process of getting land from the government, getting project approval, getting a building permit and setting up the appropriate infrastructure for the project, all overall takes years to decades.

[@AndreaZzzXXX]

@@Arikanda in Italy we have both: there’s always some archeological site and we have a lot of bureaucracy 🙂

[@MuzzaHukka]

@@Arikanda would it really be that difficult to hire some of the book archaeologists to quietly arrive in the middle of the night in official-looking outfits to cordon off the site where you want to build and just have them start digging (carefully, of course)? Surely you could excavate any artifacts and even sell them on the black market (which would offset the cost of construction) and then have the government excavation team arrived on site to a huge hole in the ground with obviously nothing in it to find? Is it not possible to call up people in the offices and have a document arrive in administration one where you have a person that will immediately put his stamp on it and then deliver it to administration two where you also have a guy that will put his stamp on it? This is how I would deal with such things...

[@DIYDiaz]

I love that this video focused on the construction and none of the political issues. Not that those issues aren’t important, but the media about Israel is so over-saturated with those issues that few people even realize how advanced their booming tech industry is and so much more. I was able to study abroad there in 2019, and I was absolutely shocked by so much. It’s sad that so much of their tech and industry are overshadowed by their politics (which, unfortunately, isn’t an issue that is unique to their country).

[@zlotowski92]

There is definitely a huge level of construction going on in TLV right now - the main problem re: residential construction is that these properties are crazy expensive, while the city could benefit from more affordable housing for residents instead.

[@TheFalseShepphard]

luckily Nobody gives a shi+ about the common folk.

[@Bland-79]

It's not just a problem in Israel. Affordable housing is being ignored worldwide. Affordable housing apartments where recently built in my small town in Missouri which has a lot of people moving in from California and other large cities on the West and East coast but where bought up when the was finished and sold for much higher prices.

[@skellurip]

The main cause of lack affordable housing for israeli probably that there is not enough land to settle on as there are too much Palestinian living on the west bank, the final solution for "the israeli housing crisis" is one and it's very clear am i right fellow zionist?

[@dlvivlviv]

There are no such things as affordable houses. Government should ensure their citizens with jobs, and safety, and provide infrastructure. The rest is upon their citizens to earn, save and buy. The more you intervene in the market, the more expensive it gets - housing in Canada and education in the US. People are different, not everyone is meant to be a resident in the central primary location. You can't fight the Nature.

[@JonMartinYXD]

World-wide problem. High - and growing - wealth inequality combined with a finite supply of builders means builders focussing on projects for the wealthy.

This is one of the first times I had to dislike a video. And I am really sorry it is a The B1M's one :( There was almost no information about the projects, and the information that was presented was somewhat far from the truth. I am an Israeli. Yes, there is a construction phase in Israel, but it is not related to the population crisis. Most of the high-rises serve as office space or super luxurious apartments (it can not give answer to the raising population and demand). Furthermore, the infrastructure development is almost non-existing. We do have some infrastructure projects, and it is for sure better then nothing, but these are too little too late. I invite people to *live* in Israel and see for themselves whether it is enough or not. Now, inaccuracy in details is not a reason (at least for me) to dislike a video. At the end, the video is still entertaining at some level, and the creators can not know everything. The reason for the dislike is that it is clearly an advertisement in the guise of a video. It is not a video with a sponsor message. A quick search shows that the "sponsor" is an Israeli company. This makes me believe that they "ordered" this advertisement. They were lending the information and material, to make it look interesting, but they were the center of the video and not the content. I hope it wasn't the case, but no matter what happen, The B1M crew - which I adore - should take it as a lesson. We do not want to watch advertisements, but we do not care to have sponsor message during the video. Furthermore, we would like to have some real content, and not some random stuff that look right, but are far from the truth.

[@troll821]

I’ve disliked too.

[@yonatanschlussel]

Yeah..... No. Most of the construction IS residential. I don't know where you're looking, but there's an insane amount of construction country wide. Most of it is residential. The video wasn't inaccurate

[@portucodes]

Nice to see the B1M cover the amazing growth happening right now in Tel Aviv & the rest of the country! Just one small mistake I noticed: In 1:56 unlike displayed, the Sarona tower was completed in 2017 and is actually taller than the Moshe Aviv Tower completed in 2003 (Which has actually only a 235M height, not 244M) Currently Sarona tower is the tallest building in the country being just around 3 meters taller than Moshe Aviv Tower

It's not a spiral skyscraper, it's a helical one. A spiral is 2-dimensional, whilst a helix is 3-dimensional.

[@mr1flaky]

That's correct. The Azrieli complex is comprised of several buildings that are identified by their cross sectional shape by the locals. f.g. the rectangular building, the circle, the triangle etc. It's simpler compared to "the box" "the prism" and "the cylinder", and it's Israeli nature to keep it simple. I guess this is why the named it the spiral building.

I wish there were MORE comments about the civil and human rights violations. You can't talk about Israel without bringing up the fact that it is an apartheid state, even according to the largest Israeli human rights organization - B'Tselem, Amnesty International, and the UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (none of which are leftist organizations). I will stop criticizing Israel when it becomes a genuinely democratic, multiethnic, multireligious society whereby Palestinians and Israelis live together with the exact same legal rights - but that would mean ending its existence as a Jewish ethnostate. There is no justification in a modern society for an ethnostate of any kind to exist, much less a settler-colonial ethnostate. The Jewish community in the US faces growing anti-Semitism from right-wing extremists, but as a whole the community is extremely well-integrated into American society. All I want for Israel is for the state to provide equal rights, opportunities, and protections for all the people who live within its borders - which include all those who live within both Gaza Strip and the West Bank, since they are illegally occupied by the Israeli Defense Forces.

Based on my familiarity with your channel's content, it is typical for you to explore the various social, environmental, and legal dimensions of the construction topics you cover. I’m very disappointed.

[@jameswitzen7487]

The 'legality' in international law of the settlements is not relevant to morality. Judea and Samaria (the West Bank) is the ancestral territories of the Jewish people.

​@@abdulmateen400 We are talking about undeveloped land not houses or cultivated land. Less than 30% of the land in the West Bank is even cultivated (that includes pasture land). That's where the Jewish residential developments are (Area C).

@@abdulmateen400 Did you even listen to what I said? Jewish residential development in the West Bank do not displace Arabs because there is something called undeveloped land. And if I do live in your ancestral homeland (I don't live in Israel btw) just...build a house near me...

Israel (Haifa) also is very innovative in ways of public transportation. They are using a ropeway as urban means of transport.

It's refreshing Fred that you called it Middle East. We have been brainwashed for so long with Israel adopting a European tag, e.g. football and ESC. There's nothing wrong with it being given its correct geographic position although it has been positioned in the Near East in previous decades. According to National Geographic, the terms Near East and Middle East denote the same territories and are generally accepted as comprising the countries of the Arabian Peninsula, Cyprus, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestinian territories, Syria, and Turkey.
