Old Broadway Synagogue, officially Chevra Talmud Torah Anshei Marovi, is an Orthodox Jewish synagogue located at 15 Old Broadway, in the Manhattanville neighborhood of Harlem, Manhattan, in New York City, New York, United States. The congregation practises in the Ashkenazi rite.
The congregation was incorporated in 1911 under the name Chevra Talmud Torah Anshei Marovi by Morris Schiff, a Polish immigrant who lived in the Harlem area, an area with a high Jewish population at the time. As of 2011[update], the congregation claimed to represent the diversity of the West Harlem community,[2] including students from Columbia University, Barnard College, and the Jewish Theological Seminary.[3]
Built in 1923, the synagogue building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in January 2002.
