Pisgat Ze'ev, built in the 1990s, has become one of the largest neighborhoods in Jerusalem with nearly 50,000 residents. Situated to the east of Shuafat and the south of Neve Ya'aqov, it is divided into three sections and connected to the city by a direct highway. Many of the streets in Pisgat Ze'ev have numbers instead of names (e.g. "Street of the Four," "Street of the Sixteen"), memorializing the number of soldiers who fell in combat in this area during the Israeli War of Independence, the Six-Day War, and other battles for Jerusalem. A memorial listing the names of these fallen soldiers can be found at the Archeological Park in Pisgat Ze'ev-Central.
