The new B’nai B’rith Home for Aged and Infirm at Yonkers, N. Y., will be dedicated Sunday afternoon, Oct. 26, with fitting ceremonies attended by officials of B’nai B’rith District No. 1 which has maintained the Yonkers Home since its founding in 1881.
The original building was demolished in 1928 to make way for the above building. This new structure is located on a hill overlooking the Hudson River. It is of red brick colonial architecture, modern and fire-proof, and incorporates every convenience for the comfort of the aged who are residents there.
