Mt. Sinai in the suburbs | Inquirer | 05/07/2007

COMBINING TWO OF THIS BLOG'S SECOND-TIER INTERESTS: The National Park Service has certified Beth Sholom Synagogue, the suburban Philadelphia synagogue designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, as a National Historic Landmark. Looking like an "angular, flat-topped pyramid," Beth Sholom is the only synagogue Wright designed during his career, and only the fourth synagogue to be so designated. (It's also where my parents wed in 1970, but we don't need to get into that.) Many pictures available.
