As a follow-up to last week’s minyan of Tehilllim at the ohel, several chassidim met up on Thursday morning, 16 Adar, in 770 at the front of the shul, and recited the entire tehillim together in the merit of the expansion of 770.
The expansion of 770 is something that the Rebbe encouraged every single Jew to participate in, similar to the obligation every Jew has to build the beis hamikdosh[1].
“If you only knew – The Tzemach Tzedek said – the power of verses of Tehillim and their effect in the highest Heavens, you would recite them constantly. Know that the chapters of Tehillim shatter all barriers, they ascend higher and still higher with no interference; they prostrate themselves in supplication before the Master of all worlds, and they effect and accomplish with kindness and compassion[2].”

I don’t like the architecture look of the proposed expansion at all
It should be expanded at least five times it’s size as the population grows. Every other chassidis is a expanding their shuls. Skver that has room for five thousand chassidim is doubling its new shul under construction. Both Bobovs are expanding their shuls to entire blocks in Boro park. There is no reason lubavitch can’t expand.
