The First Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn at 118 Henry Street, gets a loving look from Brownstoner as a recent Building of the Day. The congregation was founded in March 1822, while the beautiful Gothic Revival church, designed by architect William B. Olmsted, was built in 1846. It intersects Clark Street and Love Lane. Much more here.
