The complex consisting of a church, original chapel, ladies parlor, and rectory was designated a city landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission on March 23, 1982.

[2] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 4, 1982.

The ladies parlor was built in 1889 to designs by English-American architect Frederick Charles Merry (d.1900) and the rectory building in 1893 to designs by architect Woodruff Leeming.

The church is noteworthy as one of Brooklyn's finest examples of the Early Romanesque Revival architectural style.

[2] In the 1980s, as an example of adaptive reuse, the interior of the church complex was converted to apartments and offices.
