Doğu Avrupa'dan NY'a göçen yahudiler tarafından inşa edilen (1887) ve şu anda Çin mahallesi sınırları içerisinde kalan Eldridge St. Sinagogu NY'un kültürel çeşitliliğini hissetmek için görülmeli ????
Ortasında 6 köşeli Davud yıldızı bulunan ve bir gökyüzü atlasını andıran mavi renkli cam vitray Eldridge St. Sinagogu'nun en etkileyici parçası.
