The abandoned B'nai Jeshurun synagogue in Newark was once one of the largest Jewish congregations in the United States. After they relocated to the suburbs the synagogue was used by the Hopewell Baptist Church before it closed.

These facilities make wonderful sound stages. Either for groups to practice in. Or for a small venues to play in them. Even some small plays can be performed there.

@AbandonedAmerica So beautiful and sad that it's abandoned. I wonder why on some of these places.
