REDEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE CAPITAL PROGRAM AIDING IN REBUILDING OF TREE OF LIFE SYNAGOGUE

Jewish leaders at the Tree of Life synagogue are getting support from the state as they rebuild the Pittsburgh worship center.  State Representative Dan Frankel has announced that four-million dollars for the project is coming from the commonwealth’s Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program.  Work is already underway to construct a new building and establish a memorial dedicated to the eleven people who were killed in the antisemitic attack at the Squirrel Hill property in 2018.  Construction could be completed in 2026.
