Lincoln Square Synagogue, Modern Orthodox synagogue in Lincoln Square, Manhattan, United States

The synagogue at 180 Amsterdam Avenue spans 52,000 square feet across multiple levels and accommodates 429 worshippers in its main sanctuary.

Founded in 1964 by Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, the congregation moved to its current location in 2013 following a land exchange agreement worth 20 million dollars.

The congregation maintains a Torah MiTzion Kollel program that provides educational services and Torah study opportunities for the Manhattan Jewish community.

The building operates under a nut-free policy, ensuring all food served within the premises remains safe for individuals with allergies.

Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan celebrated her bat mitzvah at this synagogue, marking the first such ceremony for a girl in the congregation.
