From now on you will get used to saying: Yardena Arazi Street.
The cornerstone was laid today in the Givat Zemer neighborhood of Haifa, which is currently being built on a street to be named after the singer, the bride of the "Violin of David" award and the first Eurovision presenter to be held in Israel.
At the ceremony, which was attended by family members, Haifa Mayor Einat Klish Rotem and City Council members Sigal Zioni and Nir Shovar, Arazi thanked the mayor for the welcome initiative to dedicate an entire neighborhood to Israeli culture and music and even noted that maybe one day she will move there.

Arazi added that "4 km separates my childhood home on Arlozorov Street from the beautiful place we are in now.
I remember this hill as a scout girl who still loves to walk in nature. '
Mayor Einat Klish Rotem: "Here, in the Givat Zemer neighborhood in the heart of the city, next to a park named after Efi Netzer and streets named after Yehoram Gaon and Ehud Manor and others - all listed on the list of great Hebrew singers for generations - we saw fit to name a street after you, "Jordan, because you are, without a doubt, at the top of this respectable list."
