Viznitz-Williamsburg Kehillah Closes on Massive Property in Heart of Monsey
YS GOLD
The nucleus of Viznitzer chassidim in Monsey who are adherents of the Viznitzer Rebbe of Williamsburg is growing by leaps and bounds, and the small space where they have been davening and gathering is becoming too small. Currently, there are two hundred families in its ranks, and in recent months, five young men have gotten married and settled in Monsey.
To this end, the Kehillah has just announced the closing on a property 40 x 60 feet in size on Maple Terrace in the heart of Monsey.
When completed, the building will encompass a massive beis medrash, multiple side rooms for minyanim, a large mikvah, and an apartment for the Rebbe shlit"a, among other features which will accommodate the growing kehillah. A massive fundraising drive has been undertaken among Viznitzer chassidim to make this dream a reality.
It is hoped that the chassidim will be able to move into the magnificent new building for Tishrei of 5788.
