    beth_i_007 Photograph of Beth Israel Synagogue in a Religious Landmarks calendar for the year 1985. Written on bottom: "A fire of mysterious origin gutted the interior of this building immediately after its completion in 1916. As soon as the ashes had cooled, rebuilding began, and was completed in 1924. When this photograph was taken, on April 25, 1969, the synagogue had fallen victim to 'urban renewal' and was being demolished. The new synagogue was erected on Murdock Avenue." beth_i_007.jpg (10134441 bytes)
