Second United Presbyterian Church

A small group of Presbyterians gathered in the Lohr Building on Wood Street in June 1891 and planned their future worship space at Hay Street at Biddle Avenue. They worshiped in the Lohr Building for three years until the church building was completed in 1895. Soon their membership had outgrown the church space and a large addition was completed in 1902. By 1914 they needed much more space so a temporary "tabernacle" was constructed nearby while a huge new stone edifice was built on the Hay/Biddle site. It was dedicated in 1916. Although it has gone through many structural changes in its over 100-year history, the Second United Presbyterian Church still stands at this location today.
