This is one of the largest mixed use sites in the area, which houses tenants together with high -tech companies, some of which are prominent names in Israel, as well as risk capital fund
Among the companies that operate on the site and are forced to evacuate the AI21 laboratories: the company of AI founded by Prof. Dr. Amnon Shashua, The PSG Fund, Flare (Formly Marble) and Cybersecury Company Salt Security.
According to familiar sources with the condition of the building, the damage that Caaed requires a great renewal work, and can take many months and even a year until the offices and apartments can be used again. At this stage, the entire building is not accessible to the public, except the specific permits granted to the designated teams that eliminate the equipment and urgent work.
In addition to real damage, the general structural implications for building stability and the possibility of reward are also examined, including roof damage, plumbing, electrical systems and sealing.
