This Greek Revival style church was erected in 1844 to the designs of Staten Island builder James G. Burger and was enlarged in 1898 with a Colonial Revival Sunday School addition designed by architect Oscar S. Teale. The church’s congregation is the oldest in Staten Island and its first church building was erected on this site in 1715.
Days after Staten Island was hit by rising tides from Hurricane Sandy, residents returned to their homes to salvage personal items with the help of volunteers.
The area remains without power while communities start to pick up the pieces from the worst storm in the city's history.
