David Kroyanker

[3] He attended a high school located next to the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and served in the Paratroopers Brigade of the Israel Defense Forces from 1958 to 1961.The school was ultimately torn down in 1980; Kroyanker was part of the team that designed a memorial to the bulldozed structure using pieces of the original facade.[4][8] His works are richly illustrated with historic photographs, maps, sketches, and original street and neighborhood plans.[2] As a result of his research, Kroyanker has amassed the largest private archive in the world of literary and visual documentation related to Jerusalem architecture.[3][7] Kroyanker's research has been criticized for its "nostalgic tone"[2] and his exclusion of "more recent architectural phenomena such as the effect of the security barrier on the urban space, or the abundance of empty apartments in the center of town".
