A few minutes from where I live, there is an interesting phenomenon, believed to the be the first of its kind in North America: a single building is used for both Reform Jews and United Church of Canada.
Of course, both are on the moderate/liberal side within Judaism and Christianity, and it would not have been considered if they were more conservative.
Historically, this is not the first time in that two different religions shared a building, as I will detail in another article on the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus, Syria.
