Hassan Bek Mosque was built at a distance from the built-up area of the Manshiyya quarter some 60 years after it was founded ,"to keep the land north-west of the old city open for the northward spread of Jaffa and block the seemingly inexorable advance of Jewish land purchases and settlement surrounding Jaffa." (p. 283)
