98 Fifth Avenue's New Facade Revealed

It's been about three months since the Park Slope Christian Tabernacle, on Fifth between Warren and Baltic, got shrouded in construction netting, and a few weeks since I noticed that something large and pointy was growing from the roof. Well the netting has been taken down, and the new facade has been revealed for all to see.

The whole building has been given a smooth cream-colored facade, and the northernmost two windows have been combined into one large one. And I still have no idea what that thing coming off of the roof is.

Here's how it used to look:

That place was nasty before. Now it's just weird, but yeah, an improvement.

Looks like a church-sort of steeple... makes sense considering the space and what is doable for them.

I love that you keep track of places like this. I have photographed this church over the years, and been inside of it too. Thank you for showing us ALL of Park Slope.
