""Not only is it one of Brooklyn's most beautiful churches, designed by an important Brooklyn architect, George P. Chappell, not only does it have a gorgeous interior and a very valuable signed Tiffany landscape window, not only are the rest of the stained glass windows first quality, and not only are the church and rectory one of a kind and unique, it's also the church I used to attend when I lived in Brooklyn," Spellen said in an email."
""The listing says the single-story parish hall at 1231 Pacific Street is already slated for demolition and would be a 'vacant development parcel.'""
A late 19th century Romanesque Revival church in Crown Heights is for sale as a development site, with part of it included in recent rezoning. The church, rectory, and parish hall are marketed as a significant development opportunity. While the church is landmarked, the other buildings are not protected and may be demolished. The property has substantial buildable square footage and could accommodate large or phased projects. Concerns have been raised about the implications of selling a landmarked site for development.
