Mr. Gorlin’s firm, Alexander Gorlin Architects of Manhattan, has a portfolio spanning all levels of society, from high-end residences to affordable housing to places of worship including several beautiful synagogues.

 

More importantly, Mr. Gorlin is a student of the work of Louis Kahn, the renowned architect who designed our current building 35 years ago. Mr. Gorlin’s firm has extensive experience designing synagogues. His designs for Temple Beth El will provide the space we need while respecting the synagogue’s original design.
