WHAT’S UP WITH NEIGHBORHOOD BUSINESSES

New Expansions

TEMPLE EMANU-EL completed its $38 million renovation and expansion project. Improvements to Northern Texas’ first Jewish congregation include a two-story addition for offices, an Early Childhood Education Center wing and gathering space. The synagogue also was expanded to include a chapel with seating for more than 500 people.

THE CAMBRIDGE SCHOOL is looking to move into the 3.9-acre property that Walnut Hill Lutheran Church occupies at 3202 Royal Lane. In July, the property was listed for sale by the church for $2.7 million. The site carries residential zoning, and the Christian private school filed a request to amend the zoning designation so that it can operate there. “Although there is a request in to zoning, we would prefer to wait until the process concludes before we do any interviews,” saysEmily Eber, director of communications and community development, when asked for comment. “We are still in early stages and don’t want to rush anything.”
