Mezuzah

Share:

In the Maxwell Street neighborhood, vestiges of its Jewish past remain evident, pre-demolition, such as this Jewish mezuzah posted on an interior apartment door at 1210 S. Union. Mutiple layers of paint attest to its passage of time when the building served as a poultry shop with a synagoue and rabbi’s residence occupying the top two floors.
