"I will yet build you, and you shall be built, O Maiden of Israel"
(Yirmiyahu 31:3)

New Building for Satmar Beis Rochel of Williamsburg, may it be guarded
The "Mayer Zelig Ripler Building"
The third building in the chain of the magnificent "Ripler Buildings."
*
The site of the new building is located in the heart of New Williamsburg, on the corner of Sanford Street and Park Avenue. It will be built as a continuation of the two existing "Ripler Buildings," where thousands of Beis Rochel students are educated with pride and honor.
The distinguished Ripler family, may they live long, has generously donated to build a brand new "Beis Rochel Building." The work began with pouring the foundation, and so on up through all 6 floors, from foundation to finishing touches, complete in its splendor.
The site of the new building is gigantic! It occupies an area of 10,000 square feet, on which a mighty fortress for the chinuch of girls will be built, with a fresh 60,000 square feet for the use of girls' chinuch.
The first phase of the building includes the first 2 floors, where a huge "auditorium," a "lunch room," and classrooms will be set up. Once the site is rezoned, the remaining 4 floors will be built above, with dozens of classrooms, up to a large "playground" on the roof, for the use of the Beis Rochel students for many long years, b'ezras Hashem.

Eventually, b'ezras Hashem, a new "wedding hall" will be set up in the building for the use of the public, along the lines of the adjacent magnificent "Ginas Esther" hall, which the public is eagerly awaiting.

Construction has begun! The work has actually started already! And the plans are fully ready to erect, b'ezras Hashem, a majestic building to serve as a base for the chinuch of girls for many long days.
