Buildings & Grounds
Architecture

The modest chapel first erected in 1889 across from a corn field has grown into a magnificent Gothic edifice at the crossroads of two major thoroughfares. First designed by architect Addison Hutton (1889), with additions by William L. and Walter F. Price (1904), and Davis, Dunlap, and Barney (1925), Overbrook Presbyterian Church is considered an architectural gem. Our building is listed as an American Presbyterian and Reformed Historical Site, and is also on the U.S. Department of the Interior’s National Register of Historical Places.
