McCulloh Street Synagogue
At approximately 1905, the congregation built the McCulloh Street Synagogue in the American neo-Romanesque style (with Moorish capitals, eastern-Gothic turrets, and a distinctive ocular window at the entrance). This Synagogue was sold, approximately 1935, to become the Zerubabbel Grand Lodge, which it remains today.
The synagogue was dedicated on September 11, 1903. The McCulloh Street Synagogue closed in 1958. Included in the voting membership was Henry Hartogensis, the prominent orthodox Gabbai and financial officer, who had transferred from Chizuk Amuno."
