Summary
| Description |
English:
Originally constructed as a farm building on the
Calverts’ Riversdale estate, this is one of only two surviving outbuildings from that large plantation. Built in 1817, the structure was used as a church since 1872. The building was acquired by St. Andrew’s Church after 1930 and then used as a parish hall. The buttresses were added after 1912. The main entry door was changed to a window in 1957, when it was purchased by the Progress Club, later known as the College Park Woman’s Club, which used the building as their headquarters. It is now owned by the City of College Park and used as a public meeting place. https://www.mncppcapps.org/planning/publications/BookDetail.cfm?item_id=237&Category_id=2 |
