The Temple Sinai was built in 1967, designed by Rochester architect James Johnson. The building is meant to resemble a tent with the concrete walls poured on-site. In front of the glass wall outside are two ivy-covered tablets, symbolizing the Ten Commandments. The building with the sloped entrance is the religious school which I believe was built at the same time. For more, see their website.
