Cuyler Presbyterian Church, Presbyterian church building in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, United States
Cuyler Presbyterian Church at Pacific Street is a two-story rectangular structure with a steep slate roof and terra cotta details. The building displays the solid construction methods typical of late 19th-century religious structures.
The building was constructed in 1892 by architect Edward Sargent during an era of religious community expansion in the New York region. It gained official recognition when added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
The building served as a gathering place for members of the Mohawk community from Kahnawake, Quebec who settled in this neighborhood. It reflected their communal bonds and cultural identity through shared religious practice.
The building is now a private residence and can be viewed from the outside to observe its architectural features. Visitors should note that the interior is not open to the public and the structure sits on a busy street in the neighborhood.
Adjacent to the main structure is a former parsonage built around 1851 that displays Greek Revival architectural features. This older building reveals how architectural styles evolved from mid to late 19th century.
