Islamic Center of Boston
100 Malcom X Blvd, Roxbury MA

The ISB Cultural Center is the largest Islamic complex in New England. The architects of the complex integrated the architecture of the mosque with the surrounding neighborhood and region, using brick and beige concrete together with traditional Islamic motifs of pointed arches, a 140-foot minaret, and a gilded dome. The new facility includes a mosque to accommodate 1,200 men and 400 women in prayer rooms, and an addition is planned for 2013, which will house the Malik Academy, an Islamic school for students from kindergarten through fifth grade.
