In 1891, a new brick building was built at the corner of 24th Street and Nueces, two blocks west of the church's present location.
The Wesley Bible Chair building was constructed just north of the church, in the area now occupied by Heinsohn Hall.
This new building housed all student activity at the church, as well as providing much-needed space for Sunday School classes and other meetings.
While those windows once provided light to the classrooms on the third floor of the sanctuary, they are now only accessible from the attic above the barrel-vaulted section of the rear of the church.
An old bakery, along with several small buildings, were on that property, and those spaces were used for several years as meeting rooms for children's Sunday School, as well as Boy Scouts and other groups.
A major renovation of the entire property was undertaken beginning in 1956, when the old bakery and other buildings on the corner of 25th Street were demolished to make room for a parking lot.
The sanctuary was again renovated in 1978, when the chancel area and choir loft were expanded, and the dome was reopened to allow in natural light through the stained glass windows around its perimeter.
Minor modifications were made to the sanctuary choir loft area in 1995, to accommodate a new Steinway grand piano.
These renovations include a complete restoration/preservation of the stained glass windows, improving accessibility to the sanctuary for the mobility-impaired, and replacing the 100-year-old roof.
