Founded on Miami Beach in 1938 as Congregation Jacob Joseph, then as the Miami Beach Community Center, the name was changed to Temple Emanu-El in 1954. The building dates from 1949. The dome is designed in the Byzantine style and departs from the Art Deco style commonly found in Miami Beach during this period.
