Photos of our new home under construction (oldest photos at bottom)
Nov 2024 - The wall of the western half of our exterior facade has been constructed on 65th Street (it is behind scaffolding if you are walking down the street). You can see the distinctive outline of the wall and the space for the windows in the photo and the rendering here:
The wood area is where our front door will be, as seen in this photo and rendering:
The view from inside - from the back of the sanctuary towards 65th Street:
The lower level of our space is largely cleared out of building construction activity:
Looking north from social hall to kitchen area
Looking south at social hall area
May 2024 - view from middle of our space, looking a) southeast (towards chapel), b) south (towards front door), and c) southwest (towards sanctuary). The photos were taken looking south from the vantage point of approximately where our 4th classroom will be. You can see that the space is still filled with the overall building's construction equipment and material.
