Easement courtyard

חצר בזיקת הנאה

A private courtyard that the public may cross: the "luxury without walls" idea.

Hatzer be'zikat hana'a is a courtyard owned with the building but burdened with a public easement, so the block is not a gated compound. Planners call the resulting open-block network "luxury without walls." For a buyer it means the garden is part of the project and also part of a walkable district, not a fenced enclave.
