For The Love Of Prayer And Architecture: The Churches Of Fort Greene And Clinton Hill

For The Love Of Prayer And Architecture: The Churches Of Fort Greene And Clinton Hill

Fort Greene and Clinton Hill boasts some of the most beautiful and diverse churches in all of New York City. And while some are faithful and congregants, others treasure the history of their architectural structure.

With the arrival of Good Friday and Easter weekend, here is a listing of some of our many churches in the neighborhood. Keep in mind that some of these churches do not observe Holy Week. And if we missed one, please be sure to email us at editor@bklyner.com.
