Tel Aviv Harbor
Updated:
The Tel Aviv harbor was built in 1936 as an emergency measure. Until then, Tel Aviv had relied on the nearby seaport in mostly-Arab Jaffa[1], but the Arab revolt against British rule[a] put an end to that arrangement. Since Tel Aviv never really had the right conditions for a harbor, it ended commercial operations in 1965. The area continuted to decline until it was a complete wasteland, but in 2002 a massive transformation program was put into motion and the harbor is now a premier district for entertainment and shopping.

The graffiti reads Am Israel Hay[b], or "Long Live Israel!" (lit. "The people of Israel live!")
