HaPoel House This building is a remnant of the British Air Force Maintenance Base that operated here in the 1940s. The building was adjacent to the residential complex of an air crew and next to various administrative buildings.
In the 1950s, the employment bureau and the Hapoel sports club operated this structure.
When the Bureau moved to another building, the place was renovated with the help of the Histadrut, and the entire building was at the club’s disposal. The soccer games took place in the area, formerly called Camp C (now is the Friday Market Area). In the second half of the 1960s, a new soccer field was established (now, Etzel Street), and all club activities were concentrated there.
The vacated building served as the "Labor" party house, and was sometimes rented for various events.
In the late 1990s, the Histadrut ( the General Organization of Workers in Israel) sold the building, and years later the building was converted into a residence.
