The Ohev Sholem Synagogue is a historic synagogue building at 109 Blinman Street in New London, Connecticut. Built in 1920, it is a two story brick building with Classical Revival and Colonial Revival features. Its entry has double doors separated by an engaged column, set in round-arch openings. A large circular window stands above the doors, within a large brick archway that encompasses it and the doors. Four small windows flank this arch, two on each side.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995 for its architectural significance.[1][3]
