New Jewish neighborhoods
were also built during the
Mandate, including Beit
Hakerem, Mekor Hayim,
Mekor Baruch, Rehavia,
Talpiot, Kiryat Moshe, Na-
halat Ahim, Kiryat Shmuel
and Bayit VeGan. Each
neighborhood had its own
character. Beit Hakerem, for
example, was established by
a group of professionals and
teachers. Bayit VeGan, on
the other hand, was a par-
tially religious community.
