It sits on a small triangular parcel just outside the Onteora Club grounds.","why_significant":"It is significant under Criterion A for its long association with Onteora Park, a late-nineteenth-century summer literary and artistic colony, and for serving as a religious, social and cultural gathering place for both the colony and the local community. It also meets Criterion C for its intact Gothic Revival design, the murals by Canadian artist George Agnew Reid, and its memorial stained-glass windows.","narrative":"All Souls Church is a small fieldstone chapel on a triangular lot along Route 23-C, about two and a half miles north of Tannersville. Built in 1894 to a Gothic Revival design by Canadian artist George Agnew Reid, it was commissioned by members of the Onteora Club, a summer colony of writers and artists. Local builder Thomas Dunbar worked with Reid using local labor and materials. In 1910 the chancel was extended and transepts were added, and the bell tower received battlements. London firm Heaton, Butler and Bayne made the stained-glass memorial windows installed about 1916. Inside, Reid's murals of angel choirs and a resurrection scene by Dora Wheeler Keith decorate the gable walls. The non-denominational chapel served both the summer colony and neighboring Eastkill Valley communities, which lacked churches. Its design, murals and high degree of preserved original fabric account for its recognition for architecture, art and community history.","period_of_significance":"c1894-c1916","architect_builder":"George Agnew Reid, architect and muralist","architectural_style":"Gothic Revival","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Retains a high degree of integrity and has been well maintained by the community; still used as a religious facility, with a historic auditorium function also listed.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:49.969424-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/93001223.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/93001223/78d3aa7941-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/93001223/78d3aa7941-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"louis dallara","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:All-souls-church-tannersville-ny-8052.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">louis dallara</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:All-souls-church-tannersville-ny-8052.jpg"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"03000023","name":"Onteora Park Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/new-york/onteora-park-historic-district-03000023/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75317920","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Souls_Church_(Tannersville,_New_York)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4729653"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/greene-county/all-souls-church-93001223/"}
