Reply To: Temple Beth-El of Borough Park, what do we know about its history?

Just saw this old thread brought to life and had to make some comments.
My paternal great grandparents moved to Boro Park in 1903.
Both my grandfather and father celebrated their Bar Mitzvah at the Temple Beth El in 1913 and 1935 respectively.
In postwar II America the use of the word ‘Temple’ and a synagogue name usually indicated this was a Reform synagogue, but that was not a universal truth. Here in New England ‘Temple’ XXXX was the name of many Orthodox shuls founded after the Russian pogroms of 1881 and the change of immigration laws in about 1924.
My eldest BIL just retired as the pulpit rabbi of one of these so named shuls near Boston after some 30 years.
