Dating back to its 1829 foundation, Ansche Chesed inhabited five different buildings around Manhattan before settling in the Bloomingdale neighborhood. In 1927, the congregation laid the cornerstone for its current home on West End Avenue and 100th Street. Designed by architect Edward I. Shire in a synthesis of Romanesque and Byzantine styles, one publication called it β€œthe finest temple thus far built in the city” upon its completion.
