"A New York
Jewish Landmark
BY Estelle Brown

One Of the newest sights in
New York City is the imposing
building on Fifth Avenue and
65th Street, across from Central
Park. 1t is the House of Living
Judaism!
The seven-story, white lime
stone structure, which arrests the
attention of thousands of passers-
by and has attracted more thou
sands Of sightseers as well as
New York residents houses the
Union of American Hebrew Con-
gregations, parent body of the
nations 400 Reform temples.
Completed three years ago, the
center, often hailed as the most
beautiful headquarters building
for any Jewish organization in
America, represents one of the
largest gifts ever made to an
American Jewish religious agen-
cy. The donor was the late DR..
Albert A. Berg, celebrated sur
geon whose piety animated him
to memorabilia his parents, Moritz
and Josephine Berg, by the gift Of
this building. The building was
furnished through the hundreds
of temple sisterhoods whose Pro-
ject of Living Judaism under
wrote the modern appointments
and appurtenances which add to
the attractiveness of the interior.
Indeed, the Sisterhoods, in order
to exhibit far and wide the beau
tiful building, have just COM
pleted a filmstrip entitled, with
in These Walls" an imaginary
tour through the building.
In a real tour, the visitor would
see the headquarters suite of the
National Federation of Temple
Sisterhoods on the sixth floor. A
highlight of this floor is the ''Pres-
ident's Room" where national
officials of the organization can
meet for conferences and consult
with fellow-executives or staff
members. This room contains the
portrait of Mrs. Abram Simon,
widow of a distinguished Wash
ington, D. C. rabbi. Mrs. Simon
was a founder of the Sisterhood.
