Beck Memorial Church, 1928. The second church building for the congregation originally established in 1814 and originally called the First Presbyterian Church of West Farms. This Gothic Revival style church was funded by a trustee Charles Bathgate Beck, in honor of his mother (hence the name). The most striking feature of this still standing (though seemingly unused building) is the large terra cotta topped tower with mansard roof and an ornate weathervane.
