4"h x 5"w black and white photo of St. Nicholas Church on Cedar Point. Since the Navy took over the land, the church has been used as the station chapel. It is a gable roofed building with a square tower on the right corner. It is made of hollow concrete block with a pressed finish. The tower does not have a steeple, but ends with crenellation on the top. There are openings on each face near the top of the tower, but there are no windows. On the first level, there is a regular glass window in the visible face. On the gable end, there is a round window in a rectangular opening, two rectangular windows on the next level, and on the first level, a small window on each side of the double door. There is an elaborate hood over the door. The doors appear to be four steps above the ground. On the long wall, there are four visible leaded glass windows. There is shrubbery, lawn, and large trees around the building. It is the focal point for several paths.
