This structure was originally built as the Church of the Transfiguration (The Little Church Around the Corner) in what was then suburban New York City. The church was acquired in 1897 by St. Stephen's Church, which had originally been founded in 1805 at the corner of Broome and Chrystie and which was relocating from the Church of the Advent on West 46th Street. In 1975 the struggling congregation merged with a competing neighborhood church, Christ Church, which had been inaugurated in 1793.
