Finished in 1953 on the west side of the congregation's earlier basement church, the square brick wing presents a limestone pavilion to 35th Avenue with a tall semicircular bay of multi-pane windows between fluted piers. Its cornerstone reads 1952. Double doors with brushed-metal geometric grilles flank the bay, bold geometric reliefs sit above the openings, and two flights of steps lead up to a low platform along the avenue.
