After some years of nomadic existence, the congregation raised over £6 million to construct a synagogue building in the Sternberg Centre site, which was opened in 2011.

The Finchley museum closed in 2007 and moved in 2009 to an enlarged building on the Camden site, releasing space for the expansion of the Akiva School.
