Description
English: Fletcher Chapel, now known as First Tabernacle or First Tabernacle Beth El, located at 401 New York Avenue, N.W., in the Mount Vernon Square neighborhood of Washington, D.C. The building was constructed in 1854 by members of McKendree Methodist Church (the "mother church" of Fletcher Chapel), making it one of the oldest surviving houses of worship in Washington, D.C. It was one of the first buildings used by the Church of God and Saints of Christ, a Black Hebrew Israelite congregation founded by William Saunders Crowdy. They purchased Fletcher Chapel in 1903 and renamed it First Tabernacle. On August 14, 1997, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). In addition, Fletcher Chapel is designated as a contributing property to the Mount Vernon Square Historic District, a historic district listed on the NRHP on September 3, 1999.
