Description: Congregation Beth Hamedrash Hagodol Anshe Ungarn (Great House of Study of the People of Hungary) at 242 East 7th Street between Avenues C and D in the Alphabet City area of the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City, was built in the Neoclassical style in 1905 as a shtiblech, or tiny synagogue which uses the space where there would otherwise be a tenement building. The congregation was founded in 1883. The building was converted to residential use in 1985. (Sources: From Abyssinian to Zion (2004) and AIA Guide to NYC (4th ed.))
