New projects Bnei Brak — Pinui-Binui towers in the religious city

Bnei Brak (210,000 inhabitants) is the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) capital of Israel, adjacent to Ramat Gan and 5 minutes from Tel Aviv. The city is among the most densely populated in the world (22,000 inhabitants/km²) and faces a chronic housing deficit. To address this, the municipality has launched a vast Pinui-Binui program since 2018: old buildings from the 60s-70s are replaced by 25-40 story towers adapted to large Haredi families.

The new construction market in Bnei Brak is ultra-specific: 95% of the population is ultra-Orthodox religious, with strict cultural codes (Shabbat observant, large families of 5-10 children, separation between men and women in public spaces). New projects integrate these specificities: large kosherizable kitchens, Shabbat elevators, family-oriented balconies, 5-7 room floor plans for large families. Specialized developers: Aura, Shikun u'Binui, Aldar.
