Hip Synagoues: A shul thing
From TimeOut New York, December 4-11, 2003 - Issue No. 427
"In addition to its historic temples, New York City has a growing contingent of updated, up-tempo options, and Jews seeking alternatives-particularly young Jews-are filling their seats...
Congregation Beth Simchat Torah (57 Bethune St; 212-929-9498) the world's largest synagogue for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender jews, drew attention when it opened in 1973. Today, many liberal synagogues explicitly welcome gay and lesbians, but CBST is still the only place in NYC where queerness is the norm."
