St. John the Evangelist's Church, Catholic church in Manhattan, US.
St. John the Evangelist's Church stands at 355 East 55th Street at First Avenue, featuring brick construction with stone architectural elements.
The parish dates back to 1841 when Reverend John Hughes dedicated the first frame church at the current location of St. Patrick's Cathedral.
The church conducts regular services and maintains programs focused on community support while engaging with local artists and musicians for cultural events.
The church building remains active until 2025, when the archdiocese plans to merge the parish with the nearby Church of the Holy Family.
Throughout its existence, the church relocated multiple times within Manhattan, surviving challenges including a fire in 1871 and financial difficulties.
