Minnesota's Greatest Generation

Construction of B'Nai Emet Synagogue, St. Louis Park, 1958

It was in the post-war years that many members of the Jewish communities of North and South Minneapolis moved into the suburb of St. Louis Park. The B'Nai Emet Synagogue, one of four located in St. Louis Park, was built on Highway 7 and Ottawa Avenue in the mid-1950s when two smaller congregations agreed to merge.
