Park Hamovil, Kfar Saba
A Sustainable Business Park

Built originally as a remote industrial zone, the Kfar Saba Sustainable Business Park is a major city planning initiative, guided since 2015 by Price Piltzer Yawitz and a multidisciplinary team. The plan expands the building program by 400% and reinforces connections to the city, the parks system, and current and future rail systems.  The plan was recently approved by the full city council. 

​

Principles

The plan provides for mixed use buildings that include a mix of commercial, offices, light industrial, public and residential uses. 

The plan converts all roadways to commercial streets with street-facing retail, wide sidewalks, planting and service zones, bike paths and on street parking. 

An innovative parametric site planning program developed in-house generates and optimizes building mass for each of the 220 different sites in the perimeter of the plan.
