Unfortunately Herman had to liquidate his store in 1978 as his store plus 80 more on Washington Avenue was purchased to build Ogden City Mall. Their son Marc Rubin decided to open the business back up a few years later and started selling merchandise from his garage. A new location opened at 39th and Washington but currently rests at 2736 S 1900 West, with a new owner, Justin Nakaishi who took over the family business in 2009.

Made of wood, the original two-story structure was replaced in 1899 by a large brick structure with 33 hotel rooms. In 1923 a fire that started in a hotel room devestated the interior of the building and was entirely replaced in 1924, which is the one shown in the image and still standing today.

description: Interior of the synagogue, facing the front with view of bimah and in back are the torahs enclosed in the Ark, May 2021. This area of the synagogue is very important as they hold ritual items that are symbolic for Judaism and worship. The bimah is a pedestal where the torah scrolls are placed when they are read during services. The torahs are enclosed in the Ark, which is usually a cabinet or recession in a wall. Above the ark where the stained-glass window rests, is a light called ner tamid, the Eternal Lamp. This symbolizes the commandment to keep the light burning found in Exodus 27, lines 20-21. When the Ark doors are open, congregants must stand until they are closed.
