דקלי הוושינגטוניה שברחוב זה ניטעו לכבוד "יריד המזרח" שהתקיים כאן בשנים 1928-1932.
היריד היה חגיגה עממית בה הוצגו השגי התעשיה העברית. עקב הצלחתו, הועבר היריד לשטח גדול בקרבת שפך הירקון.

Translation of the text on the sign:
Symbol of the Council for the Preservation of Israeli Heritage Sites
The symbol of the city of Tel Aviv

The Washingtonia palms on this street were planted in honor of the "Levant Fair" that was held here in the years 1928-1932.
The fair was a popular celebration where the achievements of Hebrew industry were presented. Due to its success, the fair was moved to a large area near the Yarkon estuary.
