Description
The Eldridge Street Synagogue was built in 1887 by Orthodox Ashkenaz, the first temple to be built by Jews from eastern Europe. Since then, the Jewish community has moved out of the Lower East Side and the synagogue fell into disrepair. Nowadays, a restoration project is busy repairing and maintaining this place of worship, known for its touches of Romanesque, Gothic and Moorish designs.
