St. Michael’s Episcopal Church

225 West 99th Street, New York, NY 10025

Saint Michael’s Church was established in this rural spot on the Bloomingdale Road in 1807, before the city’s grid was laid out in the Commissioner’s Plan of 1811. The present building, designed by Robert W. Gibson, was dedicated in 1891. It is noted for its Romanesque and Byzantine style and its bright and colorful Tiffany stained glass windows. The Bloomingdale Branch of the New York Free Circulating Library, located behind the church, pre-dates the New York Public Library and has been preserved by the Ukrainian Academy of Arts & Sciences.
