it appears from the pictures that less people can fit on a bench, does that mean they will have to stand instead???

The essence of 770 is “original yet lasts forever” not “new”
Get rid of the new benches and reJEWvenate the original benches!!!

Thank You rabbi Holtzberg

Finally some resemblance of a normal Shul!

auction off the old benches ?
April 29, 2015 4:03 pm

maybe the old benches should be auctioned off on Ebay. I remember in the chabad house where I grew up the schliach had a shtender from somewhere, used by the Rebbe (or Friediker Rebbe) at least once, and he said it was a holy object, etc., implying it was very valuable. maybe it they auction off the old benches, it could raise money for the shul now

are more to come ?

nice improvement, I appreciate it. I notice a lot of pushkas too, it seems a campaign for us to take a few pushkas each, and bring to where we work, etc. to help pay for things, new bathrooms, etc. was there a story on this I missed ?
