First English Lutheran Church-Altar

First English Lutheran Church-Altar

As part of the New York Landmark Conservancy’s Sacred Sites Open House on Saturday we were able to visit the First English Lutheran Church.  We were given a historical overview by the Hon. Karen Uplinger and heard their M.P. Moeller organ, which was played by Lee Johnston. The massive sandstone structure, located at James and Townsend Streets, was designed by Archimedes Russell, and also features prominent stained glass work by Henry Keck.
