Description

The complex is a grouping of three functional units in two interconnected buildings originally built in 1914 as the Sea Cliff Methodist Church, Sunday School / Chapel, and Rectory. [2] [3] It is constructed of beige brick with cast stone accents and slate-covered roofs in the Late Gothic Revival or Collegiate Gothic style. It features a square bell tower. The former rectory contains the museum and is a two-story rectangular building in the Tudor Revival style. [2] [3]

It was listed on both the New York State Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. [3] [1]
