At least two internal reserves here (slightly to the right of the middle), perhaps more - the two obvious ones might be to the right of a group of four. Note the orientation of this plan is sideways. See the area as built (not very closely to this design) here; there may be one IR in this suburb, south of Ein Gedi St/ west of Efrata St, but satellite pics of Israeli urban areas are never very clear. 
'Talpiot was... planned by Richard Kauffmann, who came to Palestine from Germany in 1920 at the invitation of Arthur Ruppin, a Zionist thinker and leader, and one of the founders of Tel Aviv. Under the British Mandate Kauffmann was one of the chief actors in the planning of agricultural and (sub) urban Jerish settlements. It was in this context that garden city inspiration was most evident in Palestine, especially from the 1920s onward... Although Kauffmann's original plans were not fully implemented, they bore the influence of garden city rhetoric and an explicit vision of Talpiot as a "suburban garden city"'.
