NYFE Summary

Local farmers organized the Church of the Holy Comforter as Eltingville grew. The building was moved from a nearby Richmond Avenue site and enlarged with transepts and a tower.

Vertical boards and narrow wood strips cover the walls. Cut wooden ornaments fill the gables, while pointed windows and a small bell tower give the low building its outline.
