DescriptionFormer B'rith Israel Anshe Ames Synagogue, Buffalo, New York - 20200413.jpg
English: The former B'rith Israel Anshe Ames Synagogue, 1237 Hertel Avenue, Buffalo, New York, April 2020. Erected in 1955 to a Modernist design by architect Jack Kushin, this temple served a Hasidic congregation that was the result of a merger, eight years previously, of two earlier ones with roots on Hickory Street on the Near East Side: B'rith Israel, organized in 1887 as Buffalo's first Hasidic shul, and Congregation Anshe Ames, a small congregation that began to struggle financially after the purchase of their previous synagogue building in 1912. The congregation disbanded in 1989, and the building was sold the following year to Faith Good Shepherd Chapel, a Pentecostal Christian congregation. As of 2020, the building is awaiting a planned conversion into apartments.
