Temple B'Nai Israel, located at 265 West Main Street in New Britain, Connecticut, is a Beaux-Arts building designed by architect Walter P. Crabtree. Originally constructed as a Masonic hall in 1929, it was converted to a Jewish synagogue in 1940, serving the local Jewish community for decades. The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995 as part of a Connecticut multiple property listing of historic synagogues. The building has been repurposed as a church since 2020, continuing its role as a community religious landmark.
