Historic Open House
These six windows are an extraordinary collection, in that they cover the range of Tiffany’s work from 1893 through 1929, and show the development of his innovative techniques. They were featured in a 2010 broadcast on Tokyo TV, documenting the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany as a “Great Master of Art.”
The present multicultural working-class congregation is proud of the building and the history of the church, from its early days as a “society” church of the rich and famous of the Gilded Age, including Mayor of New York Franklin Edson, Civil War hero Admiral Macomb, and Hugh Nesbitt Camp, designer of the second Croton Aqueduct and Jerome Reservoir.
Tour guides will be available during the Open House to share some of the rich history and the artistic treasures of this “jewel” of a church building. The church is located at 190th Street and Jerome Avenue. Municipal parking is available across the street. Please call 718-367-0655 for further information.
