For the past 31 year, Rabbi Dr. Jonathan Rosenblatt has served as the congregation's senior rabbi.

In the 2009 New York City bomb plot the New York City Police Department foiled a plot by American Muslims to bomb the synagogue. On May 30, 2009, New York Governor David Paterson announced he would give the Center and the Riverdale Reform Temple $25,000 each to improve their security.

On February 25, 2016, following months of negative press, Rabbi Rosenblatt announced his plans to step aside from his role as senior rabbi of the Riverdale Jewish Center.
