Grace Church (Episc.) Landmark
"The original Grace Episcopal Church was built as the neighbor to Trinity Church
downtown. When forced to vacate its site and move uptown, the church chose a site
on Broadway at a point where the street curves westward, making the new church
visible from its former location. Built in white stone, the commission established
the career of architect James Renwick, Jr. The religious complex was expanded in the
20th century and now includes a school adjacent to the church...."
