Presbyterian roots began to grow in Niagara Falls as early as 1802. The first church building was built in 1837 and was used until 1886. William J. Lowell, a local businessman, had the church built at his own expense, and presented it as gift to the congregation in 1887. It replaced an earlier church on the same site. The building still stands, although it now has a new front, which dates to 1962. After some renovations, the church is still serving the community today.
