Ensuring the Technological Success of an Internationally Recognized Event
Tree of Life Congregation is a traditional, progressive and egalitarian congregation based in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill.
In the wake of the deadliest antisemitic attack in US history, Tree of Life broke ground on their new building on Sunday, June 23. Much of the site has already been demolished except for the main sanctuary building that’s going to be incorporated into the new building design. FSA Consulting was asked to ensure the technological success of this internationally recognized event. Eyes from around the world were focused on this event as it was the beginning of a new chapter in the story of this congregation.
A crowd of more than 400 invited guests gathered to witness the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Tree of Life building. The 2-hour groundbreaking ceremony was emceed by CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer and included many dignitaries such as Mayor Ed Gainey, Governor Josh Shapiro, Senator Dan Frankel, and United States Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff.

“Today, we break ground on a new path to peace,” he said. “The new Tree of Life will not only be a tribute to those we lost and a home for the Pittsburgh Jewish community to come. It will also be a place to teach and share profoundly important lessons against hate.”

Managed Wi-Fi for Events
There was no electricity, plumbing, or Internet at the groundbreaking site. In fact, the site was actually a patch of dirt with a fence around it.
FSA leveraged our city-wide Wireless Distribution System and our access to fiber and copper utilities within the city as our primary trunk and the 5G cellular network as our backup trunk to pull backhaul digital connectivity from our patch of dirt at the corner or Wilkins and Shady Avenues, to the developed world.
We employed newly codified state-of-the-art Wi-Fi 6 technology to ensure clean radio frequency spectrum and high-capacity data transfers.
Tree of Life Congregation is the perfect environment to grow a strong faith rooted in tradition.
