The first Jewish settlers established the neighborhood in 1887 after fleeing from Old Jaffa during the early days of aliyah. Although it was originally built as an affluent workers’ housing district for immigrants from Europe who worked at the port of Jaffa – it soon became an area for intellectual pursuits which included three major cultural institutions: two theaters (the Midrasha Theater & Habima) and The Nachalat Binyamin Artists Quarter.
Neighborhood monuments such as Aharonchik's House - a popular place to visit in Neve Tzedek - serve as reminders of the hard times through which Israeli pioneers had gone. This building was erected on Wascher Street (named after its owner) during Ottoman rule with Turkish architectural influences - making it impossible to miss while walking around {neighborhood}.
