“Menorah” will be the world biggest multifunctional Jewish center. It will be one complex together with Golden Rose synagogue, four-storey community center and Chaya Rivka mikvah.
It will consist of seven towers, a symbol of the temple menorah to be highlighted by majestic night lighting. The first towers facing Sholom Aleichem and Demian Bedny streets will have five floors followed by two ten-floor towers, then- fifteen-floor ones, and the two lines will be closed with a twenty-storey angle tower, the highest in the compound.
The first two floors will connect all seven towers with a high gallery passage and contain stores, cafes, an Internet café and other retail places. The complex will have two kosher restaurants, a supermarket and many other things.
The first tower on Sholom Aleichem street will mostly hold the Holocaust museum, one of the biggest in the world- about four thousand square meters- with a continuous exposition and exhibitions, research departments.
From here women will enter their gallery of the Golden Rose big prayer hall; the hall itself will also change to become bigger and add a special area for kids.
One ten-floor, two fifteen-floor and one twenty-floor towers will host departments and structures of the Jewish community, classrooms, spacious conference halls, offices, etc.
Two towers on D. Bedny street will be a kosher hotel for seventy-six rooms and thirty-three apartments, services for the community guests.
In addition to the seven towers a grandiose celebration hall for eight hundred guests will join the complex from Y. Samarsky street.
All engineering infrastructure is thought out in detail; technical premises and spacious parking lots will be located under the buildings.
Special attention is paid to safety; noiseless express elevators will take visitors to all floors.
Total area of “Menorah” complex is over forty-two thousand square meters, each tower in section will be a square with twenty meter side.
