The Jewish Center of the Hamptons, abbreviated as JCOH, also called Shaarey Pardes (transliterated from Hebrew as the "Gates of the Grove"), is a post-denominational Jewish congregation, synagogue, and community center, located at 44 Woods Lane, in East Hampton, Long Island, in New York, in the United States.

Designed by Norman Jaffe in the Modernist style and dedicated on August 26, 1988,[2] the synagogue has been called a masterpiece.[3] The cedar–shingled synagogue building was awarded the Interfaith Forum on Religion, Art, and Architecture excellence in design award.[citation needed] Jaffe called on Kabbalistic symbolism, the famed light of the Hamptons, and local vernacular traditions to create a contemporary religious space that uses architecture to shape spiritual experience.[citation needed] The New York Times architecture critic Paul Goldberger described it as "a building that is at once a gentle tent and a powerful monument, at once a civic presence that celebrates community and a place of quiet meditation that honors solitude".[4]
