Read the press release about our acquisition of Edgehill Church of Spuyten Duyvil.
Check out the Landmarks Preservation Commission’s report on the building. (Please note the correct address of the building is 2570 Independence Ave, Bronx, NY 10463).
Please donate to the KHS as we try to make the building a vibrant community hub. It currently has no running water, no heat, and needs plenty of repair work. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit made up of volunteers. Please help us preserve this beautiful building.
To send a check by mail, make it out to Kingsbridge Historical Society and send to:
Kingsbridge Historical Society, 2570 Independence Ave, Bronx, NY 10463.
There are many community members that stepped up to make this happen. Special thanks to:
