It is a domed Byzantine Revival-style building, with broad steps leading to a triple entrance on the front facade, which is topped by a carved representation of the Decalogue.

The interior sanctuary space is open to the dome, and has wooden pews divided by three aisles.

The front section functions as a small stage, with a proscenium arch and angled walls.

[2] The original design was by architect Nathan Myers, but interior work proceeded slowly after the main construction as financing permitted.

The interior finishes in the sanctuary, including detailing in paneling of the bimah, were completed in the 1950s to designs by Waterbury architect Joseph Stein.
