Plans Announced by Sliaarey Ledek for
$3,500,000 Synagogue on 40-Acre Site

Congregation Shaarey Zedek
this week announced plans for
the erection of a new syna-
gogue and adjoining buildings
for its schools, library and
other needs.
The building program calls
for a $3,500,000 development
of a 40-acre site at North-
western Highway and 11-Mile
Road.
Announcement of the devel-
opment plans was made by
Louis Berry, president of the
synagogue and chairman of the
building committee.
Berry said that Albert Kahn
Associated Architects and En-
gineers, Inc., will be the archi-
tects in charge, with the well-
known designer of synagogue
buildings, Percival Goodman,
of New York, as associate
architect.
The architects have been
instructed to draw up plans
for the new synagogue, Berry
stated. He added that while
a few minor details still are
in the formative stages, the
synagogue building will con-
tain several wings, which will
house the religious school,
administrative offices, meet-
ing rooms, a library to house

the synagogue's large collec-
tion of Judaica and Hebraica,
an auditorium, a social hall,
a chapel, a gymnasium with
complete locker room facili-
ties and other features which
are not provided in the
present Chicago-Lawton quar-
ters.

Provisions will be made in
the new building for a full-
scale summer day camp, park-
ing space for 1,500 cars and
adequate play space for the
children, Berry said.
The school, he stated, will
have 29 classrooms and an addi-
tional room for arts and crafts.
"We feel that our plans will
express the dignified, spiritual
atmosphere we desire and at
the same time will provide for
the most comprehensive use of
the facilities by the 1,700
families in our membership,"
Berry said.
Sol King, president of the
Albert Kahn firm, a member
of Shaarey Zedek, is devoting
himself to the synagogue's pro-
gram and is one of the active
leaders in the development
plans, Berry said.
Associate Architect Goodman
has supervised the building of
30 synagogues in this country.
He is a fellow of the American
Institute of Architects and a
professor of architecture at
Columbia University Graduate
School. He is also a painter and
sculptor. Born in New York,
he was - educated in Paris,
France, and has been in prac-
tice of architecture since 1936.
The Albert Kahn firm of
architects, which was founded
65 years ago, has supervised
the construction of defense,
automotive and other manufac-
turing plants, as well as air-
craft fields, office and bank
buildings and religious struc-
tures.
