Any idea who was the architect on this project? Maybe one of the Webb brothers?

Ellen,
I think this was designed by Percival Goodman, AIA, who designed an enormous number of synagogues and taught at Columbia for a number of years.
Lovely building, even if it is over 50 !

Dad was the congregation's treasurer and helped to raise money to build Beth-El. He would be proud to see how it continues to flourish to this day.
