Synagogue Project Recognized with a Design Award from QBBA

QBBA - Design Awards 2024

Young Israel Ohab Zedek is a local Bronx synagogue being recognized by the Queens Bronx Building Association for design excellence! Our design completely remakes their nondescript building, re-facing it in stucco and stone, with a new light monitor announcing the institutional presence to the approaching traffic. The design had to conform to a very tight budget, while giving the congregation an enlarged facility with more presence and a stronger visual identity.

We were honored to be presented with this award by Bronx Borough President, Vanessa L. Gibson. In attendance from our team along with partner, Michael Goldblum was our contractor Spiro Kremmidas from KPFF and MEP Engineer, Lana Naoum from LNPC.
