"Not small but homier and less overwhelming than the largest shuls nearby"
"Welcoming and warm people and Rabbi, and the shul itself is beautiful physically and spiritually."
"Unfortunately, the lobby is currently under construction which made attendance of the event I was at less-than-ideal or manageable but the sanctuary is still great with wonderful acoustics once inside"
"Proud to say that my Grandpa Willie was one of the founders of the 'IS' back in 1935. His name remains stamped on a cornerstone inside the sanctuary building. Rabbi Reichel presided at his funeral in 1974. Over the years, several acquaintances of mine, both male and female, had taken advanced Talmud workshops here. Given the Upper West Side location, the IS should well survive."
"Beautiful House of worship. Nice minyan. The chazan is exceptional, with a phenomenal lyric tenor voice, a real pleasure to listen. However I have just two questions: 1. why're the seats placed in this way, and not facing mizrach (like from the ezrath nashim), because like that's painful to turning to the Aron's direction. It's very possible to correct it, and so the whole assembly can be seated and mostly can pray easily to the right direction. 2. The beautiful Temple's acoustics is far to be good. Unfortunately I couldn't follow the Rabbi's certainly excellent drashah. Maybe we can do something about it?"
