These two temples would be the forerunners of a Jewish population in Brookline of close to 25,000 persons by the late 1950s. With brief variations, that number of Jews in Brookline has not changed greatly in the 2nd half of the 20th century.
To meet the needs of these Jews, all sorts of community and private resources evolved - ten synagogues including the original first two, numerous Hebrew schools, Jewish Sunday schools, several Talmud Torah, a Hebrew college, a Jewish community center (albeit across the line in Brighton's Cleveland Circle for many years), and a retail area that has waxed and waned on Harvard Street (with some overflow onto Beacon Street - particularly, in the Washington Square area) that, at times, has stood up to former competitors such as Salem Street - North End, Arlington Street - Chelsea, and Blue Hill Avenue - Dorchester.
