Photographs by Lyman B. Gorham

The grandson of Oliver Knapp (and son of my late grandmother's close friend) Frank just alerted me to these two stereographic images in the digital collection of the New York Public Library. Both were taken by Lyman Beers Gorham, youngest of the Gorham brothers and professional photographer. The upper image shows the railroad station about 1880. The lower one shows a church - but which one? At first I thought it was the old Catholic Church, but it doesn't seem to match the image of that church that I have seen. Perhaps someone can help me identify it.
