The sacred scrolls:
These pillars have the 10 commandments inscribed on them, on either side of the Torah
This is the back of the bldg. I wish I had photographed the front too. It shows the poured concrete walls. They lean out at a 15 degree tilt.

Tour Temple Beth Zion, Delaware Ave.,Buffalo 2/10/18
I took a tour of the Temple Beth Zion in downtown Buffalo today. It was a very beautiful structure built in 1966 after the previous temple had burned down. It was designed by Max Abramovitz and has been placed on the National Register of Historic sites. We were priviledged to have the Cantor of the church open the sacred Torah scrolls for us and she chanted part of the sacred text for us. Very moving.
