Thanks for the great clarification & explanation! Learned something new! I was curious as to whether the Hull Ave site was designated Temple or Synagogue, as I was sure it inscribed "Temple" (it is not). I googled 3044 Hull Ave Bronx, brought back memories. Beautiful white brick Fascia, Star of David on parapet. Above the entrance doors are the Ten Commandments, And a very ornate stain glass centerpiece above that! I know there are more ornate Synagogues in Manhattan, but this one right in the Bronx is an architectural Beauty! While it is sad to see it no longer serves as a House Of Worship, I am happy to see the spirit of what this congregation started lives on! It is now a Head Start Center! MSGR Patrick Boyle's name is on the building, all of the original Synagogue details are fully intact, very well preserved!
