This is simply due to the fact that there were more Jewish famous people
to commemorate than anywhere else !
(How is this for modesty ?)

Last summer, while in Czernowitz, I happened to meet with two researchers
from the Holocaust museum in Washington, who were conducting research about
the extend to which Jewish people are publicly commemorated in Ukrainian
cities and towns. They told me that Chernivtsi, is one of the cities, in
which Jewish famous people are commemorated more than in most other cities.
