Title

Bat Yam: Town Hall

Description

The Bat Yam town hall, or municipality building, is an avant garde gem of 1960s modernist architecture. Located in the town of Bat Yam, just south of Tel Aviv-Jaffa, this building has seen considerable decay until recently when it was re-recognized as an architectural achievement. The distinctive wind shafts have been destroyed.

Currently a new municipality building is in the works and the old one is being considered for re-use as an art museum.
