King George Street ((ヘブライ語:רחוב המלך ג'ורג), ''Rehov HaMelekh George'', (アラビア語:شارع الملك جورج)) is a street in central Jerusalem, Israel which joins Ben-Yehuda Street and Jaffa Road to form the Downtown Triangle central business district.〔(Neighborhoods in brief )〕 The street was named in honor of King George V on December 9, 1924.〔(About King George Street )〕
==History==
King George Street was dedicated in honor of the seventh anniversary of the British conquest of Jerusalem under General Allenby. The inauguration took place in 1924,〔(A Walk Across Jerusalem History, Haaretz )〕 in the presence of Sir Herbert Samuel, the High Commissioner for Palestine, Sir Ronald Storrs, the military governor of Jerusalem,〔(Sir Ronald Storrs and Zion: The Dream That Turned into a Nightmare )〕 and Raghib al-Nashashibi, the Arab mayor of Jerusalem.〔(King George Street in Jerusalem )〕
Jerusalem's first traffic light was installed at the intersection of King George Street and Jaffa Road. In 1950–1966, the Knesset, Israel's parliament, met at Beit Froumine on King George Street. It was used by Israel's first five governments, until the Knesset moved to a permanent building in Givat Ram.〔(Beit Froumine )〕
King George Street is one of two Jerusalem streets with a pedestrian scramble; the other is Kikar HaShabbat.
