History

The synagogue was founded in 1927,^[1] and closed in 1999 due to the declining Jewish population of the Bronx.^[2] Rabbi Herschel Schacter led the congregation from 1947 to its 1999 close.^{[3][dead link]}

The Neo-Renaissance building^[4] was sold to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York in 2000 and repurposed in 2003 as the Head Start pre-school program.^[5]
