The New Hachnosas Orchim Lodging Complex in Crown Heights

A huge tent is going up on Carroll Street in Crown Heights in response to the shortage of available accommodations for the Tishrei month, expanding the neighborhood’s capacity for welcoming guests.

With construction underway, the new Hachnosas Orchim lodging complex—initiated by Askanim and supported by the Rabbonim—marks an exciting new chapter in the history of Hachnosas Orchim in the Rebbe’s Shechuna.

Each Tishrei, thousands of Bochurim arrive in Crown Heights to spend Tishrei in the Rebbe’s Daled Amos, to Daven, learn, and strengthen their Hiskashrus that will last with them for the rest of the Year. With the evergrowing demand for Hachnosas Orchim, Askanim got to work to bring a solution: A new Hachnosas Orchim lodging facility that will bez”h serve the Rebbe’s guests.

Beyond being a logistical solution, this new complex represents a genuine bracha for the entire neighborhood and embodies the spirit of renewal and progress within it. The most significant innovation is the facility’s capacity to serve thousands of guests simultaneously while maintaining an elevated experience for the Orchim.

Located within walking distance of 770, the complex provides approximately 600 comfortable and spacious sleeping accommodations, complete with high-quality beds and mattresses. The structure is fully enclosed and well-air-conditioned, with quality insulation, restrooms, a 24/7 security system, and a police vehicle stationed at the entrance.

This facility enables Crown Heights to continue its tradition of warmly welcoming the Rebbe’s guests while easing the pressure on our Neighborhood and fulfilling the Rebbe’s vision on a scale larger than ever before.

All these amenities allow the Rebbe’s guests to focus on the essence — the ruchnius experience of Tishrei at 770 — without worrying about their gashmius needs. Thanks to these efforts, the new lodging complex offers a comprehensive and high-quality solution, enabling the Rebbe’s guests to experience their visit to Crown Heights with the utmost comfort and to make the most of their precious time in the Rebbe’s Shechuna.

Together, we’re making history in Crown Heights!
