The Bronfman Amphitheatre was designed for an outdoor performance area in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem. During an excavation in 1977, the ruins of the New Holy Maria Church were unearthed. Due to pressure from the religious community, construction of the amphitheatre was indefinitely suspended.

Block 38 is one of several parcels located in the once destroyed Jewish quarter, overlooking the Western Wall precinct, forming the outer edge of Jerusalem's Old City. Moshe Safdie was retained to plan the restoration and reconstruction of 7 buildings to be made suitable for 37 modern apartments totaling 6,144 square metres. Characteristic architectural details included large arched windows, terraced enclosures and roof gardens covered by convertible domes. The domes were partially opaque, partially transparent, and rotated on a track which slid open to form roofless terraces, or closed to form greenhouse solariums.

The Bar Ilan University master plan that Moshe Safdie designed was for the School of Economics and the Student Dormitories. It was planned as an urban system composed of open quadrangles defined by buildings and urban thorough fares which branched out to secondary roads and other squares. The School of Economics is an 8-storey multi-purpose building that is terraced, providing shade for the main campus walkway by its overhangs. The Student Dormitories, accommodating about 200 students, consist of a 2-storey living area around which the bedrooms are clustered. Overall, the dorms reach 6 storeys in height, stacking three terraced apartment units together, with the public spaces facing the academic quadrangle and the private spaces facing the south.

Caesarea Heights was an urban planning proposal for a site in Caesarea, a city positioned between Tel Aviv and Haifa. The proposed development consisted of 1,700 housing units overlooking the Caesarea Golf Course and the sea, including a variety of housing types constructed at different densities, designed to accommodate a broad range of family sizes and needs.

Clusters and individual units were designed to be particularly sensitive to orientation, and attempted to maximize views for all residents. Green spaces were integrated to separate major roads from residences, and to also provide a degree of privacy between clusters of housing. In general, the concept of "small communities" or clusters was emphasized, which is in keeping with the character of the Israeli lifestyle.

The Dung Gate project represents Moshe Safdie's extensive work in the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem's Old City. The gate, linking the old and the new cities of Jerusalem, was in urgent need of restoration to increase headroom and the construction of a "service" building adjacent to the wall intended to re-activate the area surrounding the gate. The site was steeply sloped and therefore the roof of the proposed structure was designed as a pedestrian pathway joining the existing Roman Cardo to a series of stepped landscaped terraces and a piazza on the roof of the service building.

Moshe Safdie developed a three-dimensional master plan for the newly proposed residential community of Coldspring. The master plan included a town center with retail and office space, two neighbourhood centers, three schools, over 3,000 dwelling units, three lakes, and an ecology center. Due to the topography of the site, three types of housing were designed: high rises, hillside clusters, and deck houses. The underlying concept of the deck house was to stack the community and residential spaces above the parking, enabling a higher building density to be achieved and therefore devoting more land to private or communal outdoor uses.

Located along the Hudson River not far from the former World Trade Center, the project was envisioned to solve the city's housing shortage. The master plan accommodated affordable housing for approximately 400,000 people. Safdie's proposal included 14,100 apartments, several schools, a library, a hospital, and other amenities covering 91 36.4 ha. The prefabricated modular construction system was also explored for this project.
