Yad Eliyahu (Hebrew: יד אליהו) is a neighborhood in east Tel Aviv, Israel.
Yad Eliyahu was established in 1929. It developed in accordance with plans drawn up by Jacob Ben Sira, the Tel Aviv municipal engineer.[1] The neighborhood, named for Haganah leader Eliyahu Golomb, became the site of housing projects for ex-servicemen after World War II.[2]
