Congregation Shaare Zedek, Neoclassical synagogue on West 93rd Street, Manhattan, United States

The granite structure features symmetrical design elements and classical proportions, with columns framing the main entrance of the religious building.

Established in 1837 by Polish Jews, the congregation moved to its current Neoclassical building in 1923, designed by architects Sommerfeld and Steckler.

The synagogue maintains Jewish traditions while embracing modern practices, allowing women to participate in all aspects of religious services and leadership roles.

Weekly Shabbat morning services begin at 9:30 AM, with additional programs including educational sessions and community gatherings throughout the year.

The congregation recently completed a redevelopment project that integrated the synagogue space with residential units while preserving its religious functions.
