Comments:
A sign of the Jerusalem "The Built Heritage" series, a project initiated by architectural historian David Kroyanker in 1993, in which buildings of historic value were commemorated in central Jerusalem.
The signs were designed by Harel Designers Office, and the logo is in the form of a relief of a rosette window ("Rosetta").

One of the entrance gates to the neighborhood with the sign on it was photographed that day Click for a larger image

On the second gate, facing Jaffa Street, there is another sign, a sign from the Israel Heritage Sites series. Please note that on the other sign, the year of the neighborhood’s founding is probably wrong (about 1873) Click for sign's details
