Collection: New York City Religions

Description: The first Sunday services of the Armenian Evangelical Church were held on November 14, 1896 at the Adams Memorial Presbyterian Church on East Thirtieth Street. Rev. H. H. Khazoyan, who had just arrived from Turkey for theological studies, led the initial organization of the church and thereafter became the first pastor. While there were a few Armenians in New York City at the time, the persecutions and massacres of Armenians in Turkey that had begun in 1895 had started bringing increasing numbers of Armenians to America. Eager to continue their religious life in their new homeland, Armenians flocked to the new Church.

Collection: New York City Places and Spaces

Description: "The mission of Friends of Cooper Park is to protect and care for Cooper Park in partnership with the local community and the NYC Parks Department. We value Cooper Park as a heavily-used piece of open space in a part of the city without a lot of green space. Intensive growth in our neighborhood, and within the vicinity of Cooper Park is bringing many new residents and increasing pressure on the park. We seek to ensure that Cooper Park is resourced enough that it can continue to provide for existing residents while accommodating many more people in the coming years."
