Lee Avenue Congregational Church

Building constructed in 1860 as the Lee Avenue Reformed Dutch Church on land donated by heirs of General Jeremiah Johnson. First organized in 1852 and formally established in 1854, the Reformed Dutch congregation did not pan out and by 1871 the church was taken over by Congregationalists and renamed the Lee Avenue Congregational Church. The church was demolished ca. 1917 for the construction of three apartment houses.
