"Kikar Magen-David" (Star of david roundabout) Tel- Aviv 1936.

"Kikar Magen-David" (Star of david roundabout), a look from south to north, Tel- Aviv 1936.

Colorized from an original Black and white photo courtesy of the Rudi Weissenstein archive and the "Tzalmania".

Here is the original B&W, courtesy of the Rudi Weissenstein archive and the "Tzalmania".

Frame from the 1934 movie "To a new life"

shot from inside the pharmacy right underneath the "עליה"sign.

The pharmacy is named "ב. שילמן" and the two small signs on the window 

advertise a room for rent and an apartment for rent.

I retraced those beautiful fonts to clarify the sign.

Here is the same location at about the same time.
Note the "עליה" sign on the top left (same sign as it appears in the Rudi Weissenstein
photo)
This photo also appears in the wonderful collection of theTel Aviv historical Facebook page called
"White city- Tel Aviv"

In this photo we see the view looking the other way, towards where the Rudi Weissenstein 

photo was taken from. 

Here is an earlier view of "Kikar magen david" by the Tel aviv photographer

Zultan Kluger. This view is  showing Shuk-Hacarmel and Nahalat Binyamin. 

This photo also appears in the wonderful collection of theTel Aviv historical Facebook page called

"White city- Tel Aviv"

Once again an early view of Kikar Magen David, 

once again showing Shuk-Hacarmel and Nahalat Binyamin. 

The original captions under this photo says 1934.

I believe this photo was taken earlier then that.

Most of the signs on the buildings are missing and the city is not as developed as in the 

 Rudi Weissenstein photo.

Or... in the two years between 1934 and 1936 the town had developed allot!!!

Here is an earlier look at the one story house located in the middle of the original photo above

After colorizing this photo I discovered that the man on the bottom right is hanging an advertisement for the "Levant fair" (יריד המזרח) of 1936. the fair's date was Apr 30th to may 30th, 1936, which places this photo just before april 36. 

1973 during the Yom Kippur war

Same location today.
