The most amazing temple I have ever been to. Gorgeous interior and great sound. There are events here with amazing guests worth becoming a member.
This congregation that I visited for the first time had so much grace I was moved to tears. The Rabbi, a graceful female who was wholly and holy interested in current scientific and natural events gave a teaching of current events tied into a love for Our Father, the God of Abraham. The Cantors and adjoining delightful musical group can only be designed as Love and a graceful understanding of a moving and loving display for our God of Abraham , Isaac, and Jacob. Moved to tears during a sermon I chose to leave a little early as this felt as good or better then any Broadway show!!! I'd rate the leaders and the flock of this graceful Jewish display of love witnessed by myself, a proud Jewish man who will definitely be back this time with a handkerchief to dry the tears the whole of this congregation and it's display of an intelligent approach to bring the love to their most gracious leaders and the entity of the Temple's congregation where I'll definitely reach out to again. Unbelievable is the only word that describes this Friday night event that seemed the best show grace and love for Our Elo!!!
The lady at the front desk was really lovely and accompanied me to enable me to have a look around even though I hadn't turned up during a normal 'tour' time. She also let me look around the museum exhibition on my own which felt like a private viewing!
It had been years since my previous visit to New York. Thanksgiving weekend 2015 and the weather was simply lovely. I strolled along 5th Avenue and found this synagogue where there were numerous NYC police officers standing. I had attended a number of bar mitzvahs as a boy in Pittsburgh but hadn't been in a synagogue since. I asked if it was possible visit. Truly remarkable.
Great temple with live organ and chamber music for services
Open to the public Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM.
This beautiful and historic landmark is open for self guided tours most weekdays. Worship is at 6pm on Friday nights and 1030am on Saturday mornings, with a world class choir, organ, and often other instrumentation, mixing classic and contemporary liturgical music. The preschool, religious school, and other family and adult programs are among the very best in NYC, as you would expect from this 175 year old institution. The community is friendly and visitors are always welcomed warmly.
Became a member as a young adult, now a Sr. Citizen. All staff, Rabbis and members have been the very kindest and welcoming to the new member and to this Sr. Citizen over all these years. A wonderful and welcoming place to be a member. Just like a warm home.
Came here on trip from England to see Hello Gorgeous exhibition. Lovely layout and not busy at all. Was also captivated by the beautiful Jewish artifacts on display. Would recommend a trip.
While the synagogue is beautiful, the services are cold, little feeling of being in a Jewish house of worship. I come from the oldest reform Temple west of the Mississippi, but even there, you feel a Jewish connection. We sing our prayers together in Hebrew; we try to partake in the service. Here, I felt the last leg of anything Jewish. As a reform Jew with a history of 4 generations in California, I left here sad; I felt no sense of community, a service so void of anything that touched my heart as a Jew. Take away the magnificent building, to me, it could be any place of worship..... Jewish? unfortunately not.
