Captured Moment: Congregation Tifereth Israel

YS GOLD 

This week’s captured moment takes us to the lower streets of Boro Park where a congregation existed for around 100 years. It was alternatively called Hebrew Congregation of Boro Park, and had illustrious rabbonim serving as its leaders. It changed hands a few times before serving as the shtiebel that it does today. 

Can any of our readers pinpoint the location?
