Christ Reformed Church, 1501-1507 Twelfth Avenue, Altoona, Blair County, PA
Summary
Significance: Christ Reformed Church was the second home of a congregation which was formed in 1863 as the German Reformed Missionary Congregation in Altoona. In 1870, it changed its name to Christ Reformed Church. Built of random -coursed, ashlar brownstone with smooth-faced brownstone trim, the church and its adjoining parsonage were designed by Frederic Shollar, architect of Altoona's City Hall. Among the church's more outstanding features are a tower with belfry, crowned by four small onion domes, and several Gothic-arched windows with tracery.
