About First Church of Christ, Scientist

This Manhattan church stands on Central Park West at 96th Street, in the Upper West Side. Carrère & Hastings designed the building, which was completed in 1903. Christopher Gray, an architectural historian at The New York Times, described it as among the most lavish churches in the city.

The style recalls the churches of Nicholas Hawksmoor, mixing English Baroque with French Beaux-Arts detailing. Inside, John LaFarge made the stained-glass windows, including "Touch Me Not" over the front door, based on John 20:17. Other features were mosaics, marble floors, gold-plated chandeliers, curved walnut pews, and elevators called "moving rooms" that could carry 20 people.

New York City designated the church a landmark in 1974, and it is a contributing property to the Central Park West Historic District. In 2004 the Crenshaw Christian Center bought the building, and its Christian Science members merged with Second Church of Christ, Scientist.
