Inside the Abandoned Blaine Street Synagogue, Detroit
This congregation was founded in 1912 as Mishkan Israel, by Russian immigrants. The original building was located in a Detroit slum area, and in 1925, a new synagogue was built on Blaine Street.
By 1958, most of the parish members had moved out of Detroit and into Livonia and Oak Park. The decision was made to again move the parish to a new location – and a new synagogue was constructed on 9 Mile Road in Oak Park.
Detroit Urbex says for four years, the Blaine Street synagogue stood empty, until finally it was taken over by the New Mount Moriah Baptist Church in November 1964.
