Tour Highlights:

  • Uncover the origin story of this 18,000-square-foot Gothic Revival building, originally constructed in 1888 as St. Mark’s Protestant Episcopal Church, later known as Carlton Mews Church
  • See how, after years of vacancy and disrepair, the building was revived by Combined Architecture with a strong emphasis on craftsmanship and contextual architecture
  • Explore the building’s unique interior and amenity spaces, where many original elements have been carefully preserved or repurposed
  • Admire soaring vaulted ceilings, arched doorways, and stonework sourced from nearby Fort Greene Park, stained glass windows, exposed brick, the original bell tower, and pews that have been creatively repurposed as part of the new staircase

About this Event:

With the transformation now complete, join Untapped New York for an exclusive look inside The Abbey at 232 Adelphi, a rare and inspiring example of adaptive reuse in Brooklyn. Once a long-vacant church, The Abbey has been carefully reimagined to preserve its historic character while delivering thoughtful and unique homes.
