The Shul was founded in 1952. In 1960, our congregation built its permanent home at its present location on Avenue U, between East 63rd and East 64th Streets. In this location, initially, the Schreiber Sanctuary, the Mestel Midrash, the Berkower Lounge and the Sisterhood ULAM were built. In 1967, ten classrooms, three Early Childhood rooms, and a small library were added, as well as a Gymnasium/Auditorium and administrative offices. Lastly, in 1992, with funding from the Crown Heights Yeshiva, a fourth building was added on East 63rd Street side that houses many additional classrooms and educational facilities and offices. This last building is the permanent home now of the Crown Heights Yeshiva.
