Description
An account of the resource
The building was originally constructed as the High Street Presbyterian Church. In 1945, the building was sold to the St. James A.M.E. Church. It is one of the earliest works of John Welch and it was designed in the Gothic style, similar to the English decorative period (14th century). The west facade concentrates all focus on a tapering square tower surmounted by four pinnacles. Pointed arches dominate all elevations while the walls are constructed with brownstone in Flemish bond.
