Narrative and photographs

This one may be a bit of a stretch, since we only saw the steeple from the ferry, but we’re recovering it anyway since landmark stations were intended to be sighted on from a distance. The name of the church is Union Congregation Church. It was built in 1857, so we’re quite certain the steeple is the same one observed originally in 1868.
