Summary edit

Description
English: Gospel Temple Church of God in Christ, 143 Beard Avenue at Parker Avenue, Buffalo, New York, September 2020. Local architect Fred Harvey Loverin employs the Romanesque Revival style here to unusual effect: a stout, pyramidal-roofed tower of modest height is appended to the rear of the church near the apse and contains a round-arched main entrance as well as a trio of similarly round-arched louvered windows. The hip roof is steeply-pitched, and the façade is of rough-textured Onondaga limestone. The church building dates to 1894 and was originally the home of Parkside Baptist Church, built with the assistance of the Parkside and Bennett-Price Land Companies to replace a smaller chapel on Vernon Place that had housed the congregation for the three previous years. The congregation changed its name to Central Park Baptist in the late 1920s (so as to better reflect its actual location on the opposite side of the Belt Line railroad tracks from its erstwhile namesake neighborhood) and dissolved in 1985. Gospel Temple Church of God in Christ has been the building's occupant since that time.
