Jerusalem Museum Gets Go-Ahead

October 31, 2008, 12:44 pm

Israel’s Supreme Court ruled this week that a museum in Jerusalem can be built on a site that was once a Muslim cemetery, reports the Los Angeles Times.

The museum will be built by the Simon Wiesenthal Center, in Los Angeles, and will be designed by Frank Gehry.

The project had been delayed since 2006, when construction workers unearthed bones. The court ruled that since a parking lot had previously been built on top of part of the cemetery with no objection, it would not block construction of the museum.
