Captured Moment: Flusberg’s Seforim Store

YS GOLD 

This week’s captured moment takes us to the center of Boro Park and to Flusberg’s Seforim Store. 

Now, this establishment was founded by Reb Bainish Flusberg, a pillar of Congregation Beth El who’s name and reputation was “gold.” The establishment was later taken over by the Szimanowitz family until it closed in the early 1990’s. 

Do any of our readers recall the location of this establishment? 

___ 

Answer to last week’s captured moment: 

As many of our readers have correctly identified, the Beis Hamedrash Hagodol existed where the “Infants Home of Boro Park” was once located, and where Mishkan continues to serve the developmentally-delayed in our community. The location is on 56th Street, between New Utrecht Avenue and 14th Avenue.
