New Middle Collegiate Church
The Middle Collegiate Church, on Second Avenue in the East Village is located between 6th and 7th Streets.〔(Congregation History )〕
It was built in 1891 and designed by S. B. Reed and was "'thoroughly equipped' as one guide said, 'with reading-rooms, gymnasium, and all appliances for aggressive modern church work'." 〔Nathan Silver, ''Lost New York,'' (New York: Weathervane Books, 1967), p.147〕 The stained-glass windows are of Tiffany glass. The church is the successor of the Second Middle Collegiate Church, also known as the Lafayette Place Middle Dutch Church, built 1839 and abandoned by the congregation in 1887. The congregation was founded in 1628, and is one of the oldest continuous Protestant congregations in North America.
Other existing churches tracing their congregational founding to the same first Collegiate Reformed Protestant Dutch Church of 1628 include West End Collegiate Church (built 1892), located on the corner of West End Avenue and 77th Street; Marble Collegiate Church, located at Fifth Avenue and Twenty-Ninth Street; and the Fort Washington Collegiate Church. All are part of the Reformed Church in America.
