Church of the Incarnation ARCHITECT: Emlen T. Little DATE: 1864 STYLE: Gothic Revival

The Church of the Incarnation and Parish House form a striking complex in the Murray Hill area. The church, designed by Emlen T. Littell and built in 1864, is a significant example of Gothic Revival architecture, and among its notable features are the corner tower, the entrance porch, the carefully executed pointed-arch openings with stained glass, and the beautifully-laid brownstone facing.
