Notes
  • Significance: Touro Synagogue is perhaps Peter Harrison's most successful building. Although it presents a most severe facade to the street, the interior treatment, including carved wooden furnishings and galleries, is a rich, sophisticated work characteristic of English and Continental design of the mid-18th century.
  • Survey number: HABS RI-278
  • Building/structure dates: 1763 Initial Construction
  • Building/structure dates: 1829 Subsequent Work
