Fifty years after it first got the attention of the Landmarks Preservation Commission, Tifereth Israel Town and Village synagogue is under consideration for landmarks designation. The 1866 German Romanesque building at 334 East 14th Street needs your support to receive this overdue, official recognition. Designed originally as a church and converted in the 1960s to a conservative synagogue, the unique architectural details feature some historic alterations, including the onion dome prominent atop the facade. The building will increase in distinction among a rapidly transforming East 14th Street.
