Brooklyn Jewish Center

The Brooklyn Jewish Center was organized for the purpose of promoting the religious, social, recreational and educational well-being of the Jewish Community. The building was dedicated in 1919 and the Center became a landmark of Jewish life and history. Under the spiritual leadership of Rabbi Israel H. Levinthal, and with the foresight of many great laymen, the center was the hub for Jewish activity for almost 70 years.

Today the Center exists as the Educational Institute Oholei Torah, the flagship school of the Chabad - Lubavitch movement with over 1600 students, and its alumni serve Jewish communities across the globe.
