For over a century, the historic Sha’are Zedek site at the intersection of Jaffa and Agrippas streets has been a Jerusalem landmark. Today, Israel Canada is transforming this 17-dunam historic gem into Midtown Jerusalem—a world-class mixed-use destination that brings Manhattan-standard luxury to the Holy City. This ambitious project seamlessly blends Jerusalem’s spiritual heritage with an elite lifestyle, offering a sophisticated residential experience tailored for those who demand the highest standards of design and community.
“This is more than just a luxury development; it’s the realization of a vision for the modern Jerusalem”, says Efrat Bertram, Sales Manager for Midtown Jerusalem. Developed by Israel Canada, known for shaping the country’s most prestigious skylines, the project features four towers dedicated to luxury residences, a high-tech office hub, and a world-class hotel.
Designed to feel like a “city within a city”, the complex is curated to respect the local character whilst remaining closed on Shabbat to maintain the sanctity and atmosphere that defines life in the capital.
Turnkey Luxury for the Global Citizen
Understanding the needs of international buyers and families seeking a second home, Midtown offers a diverse range of residences. From spacious family penthouses and garden apartments (100-150 sqm) to meticulously designed two-room “turnkey” apartments (50 sqm). Designed by renowned architect Dana Oberson, these homes offer three distinct interior concepts, allowing residents to simply arrive with a suitcase and feel at home. To ensure a truly effortless lifestyle, the City-All 360 digital concierge system provides residents with 24/7 personal services, from maintenance to private training.
A Bridge Between History and the Future
The project’s crown jewel is the preservation of the original 1902 Sha’are Zedek building, which will be transformed into the IMAGINE Hotel. By maintaining the historic stone arches and wooden gates, Midtown honors the past while introducing the 50-room boutique luxury property to a new generation.
The Ultimate Location
Situated at the pulse of the city, Midtown is steps away from the Mahane Yehuda Market and within walking distance of Rehavia, the Great Synagogue, and the Old City. With the light rail at its doorstep, the project offers unparalleled connectivity to the city’s spiritual, cultural, and business centers.
Midtown Jerusalem is setting a new benchmark for urban living in Israel. With building permits secured and construction underway, Israel Canada is committed to a June 30, 2030 delivery, marking the beginning of a new era of elegance in Jerusalem.
