King George Street is a street in Tel Aviv named for King George V of the United Kingdom who reigned during the British Mandate of Palestine. The street extends from Masaryk Square in the north to Magen David Square in the south, where it meets with Allenby Street, the Carmel Market, and Nahalat Binyamin Street. [1]
At the beginning of the 1920s, the street was called "Carmel Street."[2] In 1935, it was changed to its current name to mark the occasion of the king's Silver Jubilee. The western section of the street is still called "Carmel Street," due to its proximity to the Carmel Market.
Many of the buildings on King George Street are examples of the Bauhaus style, developed by German-Jewish architects who immigrated to Palestine in the 1930s.[3]
