You were right in thinking church... though not Russian Orthodox. That is the Broadway Christian Church, which was at one time headed by Benjamin F. Coulter, who also founded the department store. (Check out his connection to Berkeley Square
here.)

The church is the building at left in the picture below (in a shot we've seen here before, though I don't remember why); it is visible near center left in the second shot, just up from the white Broadway Hotel next to Court Flight (which is just to left of the top of the Times tower).
