The Geddes plan (1927-1929) - the first outline plan of the city of Tel Aviv, led by the Scottish urban planner and biologist Sir Patrick Geddes - is what gives the city center and the old north the special character familiar to visitors and residents of the city.

One of the prominent features of the Geddes plan is the importance it gives to green areas; Tel Aviv as a city of gardens - a city where every building is surrounded by a small garden (in contrast to the long blocks that line the streets in European and American cities), a city with green boulevards and small public gardens intended for the use of the residents. The city of gardens on the Mediterranean coast has received international recognition and is an important pillar in UNESCO's declaration of Tel Aviv as a world heritage site. Recognizing the importance of the Geddes master plan and its effect on the unique character of Tel Aviv, we bring to the public the original Geddes report, which was submitted to the Municipality of Tel Aviv A in 1929.
