Temple Beth El offers a rare opportunity for developers to acquire approximately 14.12 acres of prime land in Springfield, Massachusetts, including a substantial 61,509 SF institutional facility. The property consists of two main parcels, with the majority of land zoned for multifamily residential use, and is located adjacent to Forest Park—one of New England’s largest urban parks.
