Mosholu Jewish Center
The Mosholu Jewish Center was an Orthodox synagogue located in the Norwood neighborhood of the Bronx in New York City at 3044 Hull Ave and was founded in 1927.[1] From 1947 to its close in 1999 (due to the declining Jewish population of the Bronx[2]), it was the pulpit of Rabbi Herschel Schacter[3]
The Neo-Renaissance synagogue building[4] currently houses the "Msgr. Boyle Head Start program", run by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York[5]
