Central Synagogue is located at 55th St. and Lexington Avenue in Manhattan, New York City. Built in 1872 in the Moorish Revival style as a copy of Budapest’s Dohány Street Synagogue, it pays homage to the Jewish existence in Moorish Spain. It has been in continuous use by a congregation longer than any other in the city, and is among the oldest synagogue buildings still standing in the United States. It was designated a National Historic Landmark on May 15, 1975
