2020-12-10 - From the NYC AGO NYC Organ Project: A new church edifice erected on Twelfth street, between Fourth and Fifth Avenues. Built of brick with stone trimmings, the building measured 55 by 85 feet and cost about $50,000. At this time, the corporate title of the society was changed from "The Reformed Protestant Dutch Church of North Gowanus," to "The Twelfth Street Reformed Church, Brooklyn." This congregation disbanded in 1968, and the building was acquired by the Park Slope Community Church, a Baptist congregation. The Agreement (June 26, 1911) between M.P. Möller and the Twelfth Street Reformed Church shows that Möller would build a two-manual organ for the sum of $4,500, less an allowance of $1,000 for the old organ. Möller provided casing of walnut wood, and a detached console. R. Huntington Woodman, organist of First Presbyterian Church, played what may have been the opening recital on November 30, 1911. -Jeff Scofield
