From the Masjid Website:

OUR MASJID NEEDS YOUR URGENT HELP!
Help Us Replace What We’ve Lost.
On May 25th 2008 our Masjid was evicted and forced to vacate the building which it occupied for the last 28 years. By the mercy of Allah, we found a small temporary location just two doors down the street from the old location and Alhamdullillah we did not have to close the Masjid. This new rental space is extremely small and it only has room for 20% of our members during Jummah. The rest of the members have to pray on the sidewalk outside the Masjid and are not able to listen to the Khutbah.
We, the members of the Board and the Committee, are working very hard to find a proper location to relocate the Masjid to. We ask every brother and sister to make sincere duas to Allah-Subhanahu-wa-tala to help us and to make it easy for us. We also plead to those who are financially able, to help us by donating or by giving us a Qardhan hassanan (Islamic loan).
Insha’Allah, hand to hand we will build our Masjid riba free and in accordance to the Islamic Shariah. Insha’Allah we will raise the flag of La-Illaha-Illa-Allah in downtown Manhattan very soon!
“Help us build the House of Allah and He will build one for you in Jannah”

Ya gotta love the strict devotion to Shariah and the call to raise the flag of Islam over Manhattan.
