Harvard Street's high Jewish
visibility will be further en-
hanced with an outdoor festival.
marking Israel's 47th birthday:
-; all the trimmings you'd expect,
plus free 'phone calls to Israel.
and Russia.'
On the other hand, to experi-
ence the resonance (largely in-
audible, invisible) of Boston's rich
Jewish past, visitors do need a
guide with whom to walk the
streets of the North and West
Ends of the city, where the large
\ wave of East European Jewish
• immigants settled at the turn of
the century and which are now
virtually bereft of Jews and even
of many of the buildings in which
they lived, worshipped and con-
ducted their daily affairs.
There is little material evi-
dence of that life; that must wait
upon the CJP's Plaguing Project
this autumn. As part of the cel-
ebration of its 100th anniversary
• — the federation was the first of
any denomination to be estab-
lished in the United States —
the philanthropic agency will
place bronze markers at the ma-
jor sites of Jewish history in the
old city.
Additionally, CJP has spon-
sored an exhibit of Hebrew man-
uscripts which continues at the
\T Boston Public Library. CJP will
• also present an exhibit on Boston
Jewish culture at the Athenaeum
private library, that staid bastion
of Proper Bostonians into which,
as recently as World War II, few
Jews were admitted.
Meanwhile, before the details
of a "do-it-yourself' walking tour
are formalized in a brochure now
being prepared, there is an ex-
• pert guide available and on foot.
7' David Kaufman, a professor of
Jewish history at the University
of Massachusetts, conducts a two-
to-three-hour tour during which
he points out the locations of spe-
cial Jewish interest and talks
about the people who once in-
habited them.
The walk starts in the North
End, Boston's version of the Low-
") er East Side; its main street,
' Hanover, once bustled with the
pushcarts, open-air stalls and
cramped tailor shops which rep-
resented the Old World entre-
peneurial and artisan skills the
immigrants of the 1880s and
1890s brought with them to their
new homeland.
North End sites include Cock-
erel Hall, where Shomre Beth
; Abraham, the first East Euro-
1 pean congregation synagogue in
the North End, had its sanctu-
ary; Jerusalem Place, a street
name that survives, although the
building of Congregation Shaarei
Jerusalem, which stood there,
has been demolished; and #4
Baldwin Place, the building that
was the very center of Boston Or-
thodoxy. housing the Baldwin
Place synagogue, the Hebrew
Free School, the Rabbinic Court.
