Temple Emanuel (Hebrew: עִמָנוּאֵל, ''God is with us''), also known as Congregation Emanuel, is a Reform (progressive) Jewish synagogue located in Denver, Colorado. Founded in 1874 with 22 members, the congregation dedicated its first synagogue building at the corner of 19th and Curtis Streets on September 28, 1875. In 1882, Emanuel moved to a new facility at 24 Curtis Street, which was gutted by fire in 1897.〔http://www.emanueldenver.org/about-us/our-history〕 The congregation rebuilt at 1595 Pearl Street (the corner of 16th Avenue) and moved in January of 1899. Temple Emanuel officially celebrated its 75th anniversary on November 20, 1949, announcing at the time it was the oldest and largest synagogue between Kansas City and the West Coast.〔"75th Anniversary of Temple Emanuel in Denver Marked; Synagogue is Now Largest in Area." Jewish Telegraphic Agency 21 Nov 1949.〕 The congregation's current home, located on Grape Street in Denver's Hilltop neighborhood, was built in 1956 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.〔 Rabbi William S. Friedman, a founder of the United Way, served as Rabbi of Temple Emanuel from 1890 to 1941.〔Davidson, Joanne.
