Summary

Description
English: Maryvale Drive Presbyterian Church, 425 Maryvale Drive, Cheektowaga, New York, December 2020. Built circa 1948, the building is a classic example of the Colonial Revival - a style that long passed the zenith of its popularity in the residential arena, but which remained a major factor in the design of churches, institutional buildings, and to a lesser extent schools. The façade is a classic tetrastyle Doric temple front, albeit executed in wood rather than the customary stone, behind which lies the main entrance with a handsome swan's neck pediment above. The steeple rises from near the center of the building's footprint, with a slender spire crowning round-arched, keystone-bedecked louvered windows on all four sides. Maryvale Drive Presbyterian was founded in 1947 to serve residents of the postwar tract housing community then known as Tiorunda and now renamed Cedargrove Heights. Since 2018, the complex has done double duty as the home offices of the Presbytery of Western New York, the governing body of the Presbyterian Church U.S.A. on the local level.
