Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Die St. Paul’s Episcopal Church ist ein Kirchengebäude in Troy, New York. Sie steht an der Kreuzung von Third Street (der nordwärts gerichteten US 4) und State Street und ist Sitz einer der ältesten Kirchengemeinden der Stadt. Am 7. September 1979 wurden die Kirche und zwei Nebengebäude dem National Register of Historic Places hinzugefügt. Sie ist ein beitragendes Objekt des später geschaffenen Central Troy Historic Districts, der 1986 in dieses Register eingetragen wurde. Der Bau entstand Mitte der 1820er Jahre und ist eine direkte Kopie der von Ithiel Town in New Haven, Connecticut gebauten Trinity Church und gehört zu den frühesten Kirchenbauten in Amerika, die Gebrauch von Elementen der Neugotik machten. Bei Renovierungen am Ende der 1890er Jahre wurden Bleiglasfenster und andere Arbeiten von Louis Comfort Tiffany im Inneren hinzugefügt. (de)
  • St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Troy, New York, United States, is located at Third (northbound US 4) and State streets. It is home to one of the oldest congregations in the city. In 1979, the church and two outbuildings were added to the National Register of Historic Places. Seven years later, when the Central Troy Historic District was created and added to the Register, it was listed as a contributing property. St. Paul's is one of the oldest churches in Troy; the first Episcopal services were held in 1795. In 1804 St. Paul's was incorporated and a brick church erected. This was replaced in 1827-28 with the current structure. The exterior is a close copy of Trinity Church, New Haven, Connecticut (1813-1816), designed by the architect Ithiel Town in the Gothic revival style. Indeed, due to changes in the original, St Paul's is closer to Trinity's original appearance than Trinity itself. Today, the exterior of St Paul's is remarkably unchanged, but the interior underwent complete redesign in the 1890s. Balconies had caused structural problems, and the Rector, Dr. Edgar Enos, convinced the church to fund a complete interior renovation by the Louis Comfort Tiffany Company. St. Paul's is unusual because all aspects of the design are based on a concept by the Tiffany Company: chandeliers, glass mosaics, tile work, a glass jeweled altar rail, a baptistery of wood and plaster filigree, decorative stenciling of the ceiling, walls and organ pipes, pews and support members, stunning windows by Tiffany and Tiffany artisan J.A. Holzer - indeed, nearly all interior elements. As such it is a fully integrated interior design; only four such churches done by the Tiffany Company have survived intact, and St. Paul's is arguably the finest expression of this concept. (en)
