Naval Academy Jewish Chapel

[3][2] The Levy Center is adjacent to Mitscher Hall and contains a 410-seat synagogue, a fellowship hall, a Character Learning Center, classrooms, and offices for the Brigade's social director, the academic board, and the academy's Honor Board.

The groundbreaking ceremony was held on November 2, 2003,[2] and the building was dedicated in September 2005.

[5] The Levy Center cost $8 million to design, build and furnish; of which approximately $1.8 million was paid for with military construction funds,[2] and the remaining amount was paid for by donations raised by the Friend of the Jewish Chapel, a campaign headed by Jewish alumni of the academy and others.

[2][1] The 35,000-square-foot (3,300 m2) building was designed by Maryland architect Joseph Boggs[1] and was built by The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company.
