Captured Moment: Office of the Pressburger Yeshiva

YS Gold 

On Thirteenth Avenue, there used to be an office for the Pressburger Yeshiva. It was located atop the now-defunct Berkowitz’s Baby Furniture. This captured moment is from the time that Al Gore ran for Presidents in 1988, and the children of Boro Park came out bearing signs in his support. 

Can any of our readers pinpoint the location?

Answer to last week’s captured moment: 

The Yeshiva building in question is the large apartment building at 1571 47th Street. For more than two decades, it housed the Novominsker Yeshiva, which has since moved to 60th Street. It was subsequently taken over by the Bobover Yeshiva Bnei Zion, which will soon be moving into its own massive building, bringing together all of the branches of the yeshiva into one magnificent edifice which is set to be completed in the coming months.
