In 1983 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the only property exclusively in Putnam Valley to so far receive that distinction.

Today it is owned by a New York State not-for-profit organization known as the Tompkins Corners Cultural Center, Inc. and is open to the general public for visual and performing arts events, classes and workshops.

The church is located along the north side of Peekskill Hollow, a short distance northeast of its four-way intersection with New Hill and Wiccopee roads that gives Tompkins Corners its name.

A similar, more restrained hood, with a turned spindle in place of the sunburst, shelters the secondary entrance, which has a slightly curved wooden wheelchair ramp leading up to it.

[1] Unlike the main block, the tower is sided in a mix of round, hollow-round, and diamond-shaped shingles.

It delineates a pyramidal asphalt-shingled roof pierced by gabled dormer windows now set with louvered vents.

Double doors on the west wall lead to the wing, used for Sunday school during the church's active years.

[5] The following year, the records of Francis Asbury, an early American Methodist bishop who had been traveling a circuit in the nearby Philipstown area under the direction of Freeborn Garrettson,[1] record that he addressed a meeting of Methodists in Tompkins Corners, although he referred to it as Peekskill Hollow.

The land was obtained in March of that year[5] and Robert Barker, the congregation's secretary, was delegated to design the structure.

[1] For the next 50 years the church grew and prospered as a social center in the only built-up area in the town of Putnam Valley.

[5] The architect was Robert Barker, nephew of the similarly-named original builder and an engineer at nearby Mahopac Mines.

[1] The most striking feature of his design is the L shape, unusual in vernacular buildings of that era, made necessary by the decision to reuse the original church's foundation.

And while the main block's clapboard siding and unadorned roofline are very traditional for churches, they are contrasted by the shingles on the tower and its bracketed cornice.

At some point the carriage house's original foundation was replaced with the current concrete, and the gabled roof was installed.

The ceremony concluded with a representative of the state's Historic Preservation Office presenting the church trustees with the certificate of its listing on the Register.

[5] In 2015, the members of the local community, including musician, photographer, and filmmaker John Cohen, purchased the church to turn it into the Tompkins Corners Cultural Center.
