Caroline Rozenholc et al., « Tel-Aviv White City: The construction of urban heritage and its effects on the development of the city », HAL-SHS : l'archive ouverte pour les sciences humaines et sociales, ID : 10.3917/eg.474.0346
In 2003, Tel-Aviv was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its modern architecture and urban planning. This date has been decisive for the history of the city and for its storytelling, as for the relatively free transformations of buildings identified with Bauhaus style and the practice of building above heritage houses. From then on these modifications are prohibited by the rules of town planning, while at the same time, newer buildings are raised by several floors and many new towers are built. The Tel-Aviv study allows, from this point of view, to answer a general question about heritage classification and the paradoxical effects of urban heritage in a fabric that is becoming denser and transforming very quickly, while precautionary measures are taken against this.
