[2] The first church constructed by the congregation, a small frame structure, was built at the corner of Fort and Griswold Streets in 1831.

[2] However, after World War II, membership decreased, and in 1957 the congregation sold the building to the Peoples Community Church.

The front facade has a massive, Gothic-arched traceried window balanced with a large square flat-roofed corner tower containing the entryway.

[3] The interior of the church conforms to the Akron plan, with a large, square, barrel-vaulted central auditorium containing wooden pews arranged in a semi-circle.

The transepts on both the main floor and balcony level are constructed to be used as either classrooms or, by opening partitions, overflow seating space.
