Lev Hamifratz Mall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lev Hamifratz Mall is a mall in Haifa, Israel. Its name means "Heart of the Bay" in Hebrew as it is in the heart of Haifa Bay. It has 3 floors of stores, a food court, an underground parking garage, and an above ground parking garage. It used to have an amusement park for kids, a miniature golf course, and an ice skating rink. It is also a transportation hub. There is a train station behind it. The train line serving it goes to Nahariya in one direction and Tel Aviv in the other direction. The entrance to the station is from the above ground parking garage. It is also adjacent to the Mifratz Central Bus Station, which is the main junction between Krayot (Suburbs) and the city of Haifa.

During construction, the mall was hit by an Iraqi scud missile during the 1991 Persian Gulf War.
