St. Mary's Episcopal Church

St. Mary's Episcopal Church is a Gothic Revival church building located on Classon Avenue in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. The structure features a square tower with a polygonal spire topped in brownstone, accompanied by a parish house built in 1892 and a rectory with a mansard roof.

Construction of the church was completed in 1858, making it one of Brooklyn's earliest Gothic Revival structures. The building was recognized as a New York City Landmark in 1981 and later added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

The congregation today is largely made up of West Indian Anglicans who keep their faith alive through Sunday services and community events held in the parish house.

The building is easy to view from the street, with the spire visible from a distance as a landmark in the neighborhood. Visitors can walk around the property to see the church, parish house, and rectory that together form the historic complex.

The church displays characteristic Gothic Revival elements such as pointed arches and vertical lines that were innovative for Brooklyn at the time of its construction. These design choices distinguish it as an important example of how the style emerged in local religious architecture.
