Salvation Army Chapel was part of an entirely new building, constructed in 2002, in New York City's "Theater District". The building houses the Chapel/Theater space, two practice rooms, a large dance rehearsal/performance space, an outdoor courtyard, and offices.

The maple-paneled chapel, which is able to seat up to 156, can be reconfigured as a proscenium theater, or as a theater-in-the-round. The theater's flexible seating risers, optional proscenium, large folding leg panels, adjustable cyclorama curtains, and production lighting capabilities provide a useful, adjustable space, which is able to accommodate a variety of productions and events. Musical recitals, theater, speech, and amplified events are just some of the performances that the theater is able to accommodate. With its ability to meet the 99-seat maximum, the venue is a popular showcase for Non-Equity performances.

Desired sound isolation was achieved at critical speech frequencies, in spite of a very low budget. The production lighting systems are designed to provide various presets for chapel services, and a flexible system for theatrical and dance events. The sound reinforcement system is composed of a small-format mixing console, playback equipment, signal processing equipment, power amplifiers, loudspeakers, and an infrared assistive listening system. These systems were designed to support Salvation Army events, as well as rental and touring group uses.
