"Tree of Life Synagogue Demolition Commences in Pittsburgh"

Demolition has begun at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, the site of the deadliest antisemitic attack in U.S. history, to reimagine the building in honor of the 11 people killed there in 2018. The new building will include spaces for worship, a museum, an education center, and a movie theater. Additionally, a memorial to the victims is being planned for a site just outside the synagogue, featuring 11 sculpted forms of open books representing the people who were killed.
