An idea is born

A few years ago, it became evident to a few community minded philanthropists that the home of the Lubavitch Chabad of Illinois headquarters was in need of an upgrade and the idea of building the Dr. Michael S. Maling Chabad of Illinois Headquarters was born. The plan was borne to create a facility modeled after the worldwide headquarters- known universally as ‘770 Eastern
Parkway’.

‘770’ has served as a synagogue, yeshiva, assembly hall for farbrengens, and offices for the Lubavitcher Rebbes and various services of Chabad since 1940. It has been expanded and added to many times to accommodate the growing movement.

To date, there are over a dozen replicas in Israel and the Diaspora. We are grateful and proud to say that with the Dr. Michael S. Maling Chabad of Illinois Headquarters, Chicago will have one
too!
