A cornerstone for a Chassidic home for the aged was laid here last night at Kiryat Tzanz, a residential development at Nathanya. Officiating at the ceremony was Rebbe J. J. Halberstam, the Klausenberg Rebbe, head of the Chassidic sect which sponsors Kiryat Tzanz.
The first stage of the home will contain a 25-bed hospital. A synagogue and yeshiva are already under construction and 62 families have moved into the first group of homes to be completed at the development. Units for 78 more families are still under construction. Present at the dedication were representatives of the Cabinet and Nathanya Mayor Oved Ben Ami.
