The Church-in-the-Gardens, Tudor Revival church in Forest Hills, United States.

The Church-in-the-Gardens is a Congregational church complex in Forest Hills, Queens, made up of a 1915 church, a 1926 Community House, a 1953 Parish Hall and a separate 1929 parsonage, all in an eclectic Tudor Revival style. Grosvenor Atterbury and John Almy Tompkins II designed the rectangular church, which has a prominent tower and an attached bell tower; breezeways link the buildings.

Architect Grosvenor Atterbury designed the complex in 1915 as part of the Forest Hills planned community. Additional buildings were added over time, including the Community House in 1926 and the Parish Hall in 1953.

The congregation joined the United Church of Christ in May 2012, a union of Congregational, Christian, Evangelical and Reformed traditions. The name comes from the garden setting of the original Forest Hills plan, and the 1926 Community House and 1953 Parish Hall, linked to the church by breezeways, are the spaces where the congregation still meets.

The complex stands at 50 Ascan Avenue in Forest Hills, Queens, with the church, Community House, Parish Hall and parsonage linked by breezeways. The congregation joined the United Church of Christ in May 2012, so check the church's own listings for when the buildings can be visited.

The National Register listing came in 2009, but the congregation only joined the United Church of Christ in May 2012, so the church spent its first decades as an independent Congregational body. The 1929 parsonage stands apart from the church, Community House and Parish Hall, which are linked by breezeways.
