Sin-A-Gog Outrage: This Is Getting Ridiculous
Perhaps the lettering on the side of the Kent Avenue death trap synagogue is a hint that the Satmar powers that be have no intention of finishing this eyesore anytime soon. Isn’t there some kind of DOB regulation about leaving a project unfinished, especially one done in such brazen violation of building codes? Synagogue Needs…

From Your allegations against this community its clear that you hate them, you hate their life style you hate the way they go about things,
you don’t like the fact that an average family has six or seven kids and unlike the average American family they do not use birth control or other protection methods because its against their religion however they don’t have sex before their getting married they honor old traditional family values Unlike today where some people consider a family that consist of two lesbians and 2 adapted children
You have a point about them looking to buy bigger apartments but what are their options its not you average American family of 2007 that consist of three or four member they have nine or ten and sometime eleven members in their family’s so they need bigger apartments
Regarding the many bus stops please understand that when the weather outside is 10 degree you cant expect that a mother should walk two blocks with her four year old to a bus stop and especially when they might have at home a baby or a newborn, its clear from you post that you don’t have any kids and you are full of hate
This community discriminates against others all the time. Why is it that whenever multifamily buildings are built anywhere in Williamsburgh, the ONLY families that end up in these apartments are the Hasidim. I know for a fact that many of them receive subsidies to pay rent and vouchers for their kids to attend daycare/school. When do they advertise that the apartments are available for rent? I understand that the buildings are privately owned, however it is illegal in these six family and larger buildings to discriminate. They only care about themselves. Also, The other day i was driving up Franklin behind a school bus. The school bus stopped three times on the same block! each stop was not more than 200 feet from the next. Why can’t the mothers (or one mother) bring their kids to one spot on the block for both drop off and pick up? That’s what’s done everywhere else in Brooklyn when there are multiple stops on one block!
I agree with Mentch. The building is quite ugly but this is not because the builders are Hasidic. I respect the community for being able to rally together to accomplish their goals. As a Muslim, I know what its like to be discriminated against. I have personally worked to speak out against terrorism, sexism, racism, etc. but sometimes the “Modern: muslims like myself go unheard because it sells better to showcase some asshole doing something negative. I have shopped for childrens clothing on Lee avenue (wearing a headscrf and found the merchants to be quite respectful. I’ve experienced worse treatment in some so called progressive neighborhoods. So again lets just be careful not to become anti-semitic when discussing an ugly building.

I would like to see two Lesbian breastfeeding each other that’s nature at its best
some Lesbian breastfeeding her 7 year-old Is ugly
The really offensive comment here is the one about “some Lesbian breastfeeding her 7 year-old”. If you have a problem with lesbians and breastfeeding moms, why don’t move somewhere else, like, say, maybe somewhere in the Bible Belt. You won’t find many breastfeeding lesbians there.
it IS gorgeous inside, imagine if they had enough respect for people NOT in their congregation to make a halfway decent exterior. par for the course.
also, this is a discussion on architecture, not religion. the people turning it to one are trying to shut down criticism of the hascidic by claiming religious bias. there’s no religious bias, it’s just f’n ugly.
That shul is a gem ..its actually gorgeous inside…guys go look at it again
The posting by G is outrages to me, he says “I was able to sneak insideâ€
That’s illegally trespassing and the picture was captured in the commission of a crime and should be taken off
Regarding the interior actually I love it, looks to me Mr. G besides of being a criminal you have no taste
