Summary

Description Temple Tifereth Israel is located at the corner of East 105th Street and an orphaned portion of Ansel Road, which no longer quite connects to the Hough neighborhood as it once did, though the area is still considered to be in a portion of Hough that is much better connected to University Circle. Constructed in 1924 and designed by Charles R. Greco, the "modified Byzantine" revival-style structure was built for the congregation of Tifereth Israel, which had migrated eastward from a more central area they inhabited as the first reform congregation in Cleveland from 1850 until the early 20th Century. The large building is topped with a massive gold-colored dome, with simple detailing that is somewhat similar to the later Art Deco style, with clean lines and hierarchical massing. The building continued to house the congregation as they migrated further eastward into the Cleveland Suburbs throughout the mid-20th Century, but ended up moving to Beechwood in 1969, where a new synagogue and educational facility were built, which has since supplanted this building almost entirely. Today, the building is owned by Case Western Reserve University, and is used as the Milter and Tamar Maltz Performing Arts Center, with occasional significant religious and cultural events being held in the building by the former congregation. The building is one of Hough's most significant landmarks, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
