The first church was built in the City of Buffalo on this site in 1821 on land that was given to the church by the Holland Land Company. In 1850, the German Evangelical Church bought the building for $800 and moved it to Genesee and Hickory Sts. Unfortunately, none of the original building remains, and the only indication it was there is a historical marker erected on the current church.
