London Ministore Tower, High-rise complex in Tel Aviv, Israel
London Ministore Tower is a high-rise building in Tel Aviv that combines residential apartments, office spaces, and retail shops across its levels. The structure spans 15 stories with apartments occupying the upper sections and mixed commercial uses filling the lower floors.
The building was completed in 1972 following designs by architects Benjamin Idelson, Yaacov Herts, and Gershon Tsipor. A gas leak fire in 1993 caused significant damage that led to major reconstruction work.
The building has housed arts venues like Tsavta, a club known for theater and live performances that drew audiences seeking innovative shows. These spaces became important gathering spots for Tel Aviv's creative community over the decades.
The building offers direct street access to multiple shops and services, including a 24-hour pharmacy at the main entrance level. Its central Tel Aviv location makes walking to the various retail and service areas straightforward and convenient.
The tower was among Israel's first luxury residential buildings when it opened, showcasing advanced construction standards for its era. Its early combination of high-quality housing with mixed commercial uses set a pattern for how urban developments would later evolve in the city.
