First Warsaw Congregation (Former Congregation Adath Jeshurun)

The Adath Jeshurun of Jassy Synagogue is a now defunct synagogue built in 1904 on Rivington Street near Eldridge Street on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, New York City.

In 1912, a group of Polish Jews from Warsaw acquired the building and renamed it Erste Warshawer Synagogue.[1]

The style is Moorish Revival by architect Emery Roth.[2]
