This innovation meets all halachic requirements and is part of Duchman\u2019s efforts to make religious observance accessible in urban settings. He spends extensive time during Sukkot traveling around Brooklyn and Manhattan, offering people a chance to engage with the tradition. Duchman&#8217;s project has expanded significantly, with over 50 pedi-sukkahs now operating across 15 states and five countries. He also developed related vehicles for other Jewish observances. Duchman emphasizes that his initiative is not commercial but aims to foster religious awareness and community engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-the-jewish-press-jewishpress-com wp-block-embed-the-jewish-press-jewishpress-com\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"u9c4hXy8ne\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jewishpress.com\/news\/breaking-news\/rickshaw-sukkah-makes-the-rounds-in-new-york\/2014\/10\/12\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u2018Rickshaw&#8217; Sukkah Makes the Rounds in New York<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;\u2018Rickshaw&#8217; Sukkah Makes the Rounds in New York&#8221; &#8212; The Jewish Press - JewishPress.com\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jewishpress.com\/news\/breaking-news\/rickshaw-sukkah-makes-the-rounds-in-new-york\/2014\/10\/12\/embed\/#?secret=u9c4hXy8ne\" data-secret=\"u9c4hXy8ne\" width=\"580\" height=\"327\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Levi Duchman, a 21-year-old Chabad Lubavitch yeshiva student in Brooklyn, created a &#8220;pedi-sukkah,&#8221; which is a mobile sukkah attached to a rickshaw bicycle, enabling New Yorkers to partake in the Sukkot holiday tradition of blessing inside a sukkah.
