Lonely Planet review

Built in 1887, this landmarked house of worship was once the center of LES Jewish life, attracting thousands to its services. It fell into disrepair in the 1920s, and closed in the 1950s. In the 1980s the community started the Eldridge St Project to restore it and it's now almost complete. It hosts concerts, art exhibits, educational lectures and readings, too.
