Ibn Gabirol Street in the context of "Haim Laskov"

The Geddes plan for Tel Aviv was the proposal of Patrick Geddes presented in 1925. It was the first master plan for the city of Tel Aviv. The Geddes Plan was an extension to the north of the first neighborhoods of the city (now in the southern part adjacent to the Jaffa) reaching to the Yarkon River.

The plan refers to the area known today as the "Old North," where the eastern boundary of the plan is Ibn Gabirol Street and the western boundary is the Mediterranean Sea. Patrick Geddes envisioned public gardens surrounded by residential blocks and small streets, with main roads crossing the city from east to west and south to north.

Rabin Square (Hebrew: כיכר רבין, romanized: Kikar Rabin), formerly Kings of Israel Square (Hebrew: כיכר מלכי ישראל, romanized: Kikar Malkhey Yisrael), is a main large public city square in the center of Tel Aviv, Israel. Over the years it has been the site of numerous political rallies, parades, and other public events. In 1995, the square was renamed 'Rabin Square' following the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin which occurred there on November 4, 1995.

The square is surrounded by the Tel Aviv City Hall to the north (designed by the architect Menachem Cohen), Ibn Gabirol Street to the east, Malkhey Yisrael (Kings of Israel) Street to the south and Hen Boulevard to the west. It was designed alongside the city hall in 1964 by architects Yaski and Alexandroni.

Basel Street (Hebrew: רחוב בזל, romanized: Rehov Basel) is a major street in Tel Aviv, Israel named after the Swiss city of Basel, where the First World Zionist Congress took place in 1897 as well as ten subsequent congresses from 1898 until 1946.

Known for its many fashionable boutiques and coffee shops, the 650 meters long street runs from Dizengoff Street to Ibn Gabirol Street. The area in the vicinity of the street is commonly referred to as the "Basel Compound" (Hebrew: מתחם בזל, romanized: Mitham Basel).
