Our Synagogue Building
CBST is the proud street-level resident at a 1928 landmarked building, designed by famed New York architect Cass Gilbert. CBST’s Synagogue building was dedicated in April 2016 after a years-long capital campaign and a long stay in the Village at the Westbeth Arts Building. The love, care, and intention that went into the re-design of CBST’s synagogue building is visible in every corner, embedded in the floor, and adorning the walls.
