Have you ever heard of a neighbourhood that was named after a Minister of Housing? Neve Ofer in Tel Aviv got its name from Avraham Ofer, who served as Minister of Housing between 1974 and 1977. Before 1983, this neighbourhood was actually called Tel Kabir. The name was changed to honour the minister, who had a vision for building affordable and comfortable housing for everyone in Israel. Neve Ofer is a residential neighbourhood established in the late 1960s, nestled between Abu Kabir in the north and Tell er-Rish in the south. It is considered part of Jaffa, but it is on the border of Tel Aviv. You might be surprised to know that just here, you are standing by the only Muslim cemetery in Tel Aviv still in use today. The Tasso Cemetery was founded in 1943 by the Muslim community of Jaffa. Just imagine the history that is buried here! Neve Ofer might not be the most famous or well-known neighbourhood in Tel Aviv, but its story is one that reflects the changing landscape of the city and its commitment to providing homes for all.
