Sikh Temple Brooklyn - 2006 Pics

We've enlisted the support of our Sikh network around the world to push the concept of a Sikh Gurudwara/Museum in Manhattan into a physical reality. With the grace of God, we hope that momentum and support from there will widen rapidly. Here are pictures of the Sikh Community's current representation in NY. This Gurudwara is far our in Brooklyn and about an hour's trek door to door from the Cole & Garrett loft in SoHo.


The A Train from Canal St. This is the one that heads toward JFK but veers towards Lefferts Blvd.

   


   

   

   

The ''President'' of the gurdwara came over after hearing a rumor that there was a strange man walking around taking pictures of the Gurdwara. He was convinced I was from the New York Times and asked politely but firmly that I take his picture. In an another eventful moment, a child came running, slipped and fell SPLAT in my tray of food.

The temple attracts a mainly local congregation and I did not observe anyone from Manhattan and there were certainly no tourists.
