First Presbyterian Church is a historic
Plattsburgh, Clinton County, New York. It was originally built between 1812 and 1816; after a fire destroyed the structure in 1867, it was rebuilt in the same location between 1868 and 1873.[2][3] It is a rectangular limestone Gothic Revival style church. It has a slate gable roof and buttresses. It features arched openings and a central square bell tower with tall spire and embedded clocks on each side.[4]
The congregation officially formed in 1797, after having met since at least 1792.[2] The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
