Christ Church, United Methodist in New York City at the northwest corner of Park Avenue and 60th Street was built primarily during 1931-33. Church services began in 1933 but financial impacts of the Great Depression and shortages of World War II prevented the mosaics planned for the interior from being executed until 1948-49. The church was designed by Ralph Adams Cram who is known for his Gothic Revival ecclesiastical architecture. Here he used a combination of Romanesque and Byzantine Revival styles, instead.
The church has operated an early childhood day school since 1949.
