Jerusalem unveils 350,000 square meter first station development plan
Jerusalem’s First Station is undergoing a massive 350,000-square-meter expansion into a residential, commercial, and tourism hub, featuring new train stations, 1,400 hotel rooms, and a controversial cable car to the Old City and Western Wall. The project, praised by Mayor Moshe Lion as a pioneering transportation and cultural center, includes preserved historical sites, light rail connections, and aligns with the city’s broader NIS 16 billion development plan for 2025.
