TheSea and Land Church (known as theNortheast Dutch Reformed Church until 1864) is located at 61Henry Street and Market Street in theChinatown andTwo Bridges neighborhoods ofManhattan inNew York City. It was built in 1819 ofManhattan schist, and added to theNational Register of Historic Places on April 9, 1980. The structure is one of the three Georgian Gothic Revival churches on theLower East Side with the other ones beingSt. Augustine's Chapel and theChurch of the Transfiguration. It is also the second oldest church building in New York City.[2]

The church stands on land that was once part of Henry Rutgers' estate, which he donated in 1816 to establish the Northeast Dutch Reformed Church (also known as the Market Street Church). Rutgers served on the consistory. Noted ministerTheodore L. Cuyler was pastor from 1853 to 1860 when he accepted a position at Park Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn. The church's organ was built byHenry Erben and dates to 1841.[3]

By 1866, most of the Dutch Reformed congregation had moved uptown, and shipping merchant Hanson K. Corning purchased the building on behalf of the Presbytery of New-York to serve seamen and their families. The Sea and Land Church sponsored steamboat excursions for its Sunday School to Dudley's Grove, just belowHastings-on-Hudson. In 1894, the church affiliated with theMadison Square Presbyterian Church as a means of survival, but this did not last.[4]

Since 1951, the church building has been used by the First Chinese Presbyterian Church, a congregation of thePresbyterian Church (USA), which shared the site with the Sea and Land Church until 1972 when that congregation was dissolved.[5] In 1974 the Presbytery of New York City officially transferred the church building to the First Chinese Presbyterian Church.[6]
