11.3.17 Lunchtime drawing: The Church of the Holy Communion on 6th Avenue at West 20th Street was built from 1844-53 in a Gothic Revival style designed by architect Richard Upjohn. After the church was deconsecrated and sold, it eventually became The Limelight club in the 1980s and 90s and gained some notoriety along the way.

I am a fan of changing use to Real Estate, and this one is extraordinary. It must be surreal thing inside this beauty with such mixed energy within its walls. . #NYC The Limelight Fitness has been a staple of #Chelsea, New York since #1845. The beautiful gothic revival has had many faces, from a church to a night club and now a luxury gym.  Newly renovated and full of modern amenities, the lively club atmosphere can still be felt every time you walk in, one reason the boutique group fitness classes are so outrageous. In 1852 was the Church of the Holy Communion. Its architect, #RichardUpjohn, designed several other #Anglican #churches in #Manhattan. Angela Jia Kim, a former tenant of the space, points out, its history feels so unique to New York, and speaks to the city’s culture on a deep level. "It’s a church of contradictions," she says. "To go from a place of worship to a place of sin to a marketplace to now a gym—it’s outrageous and creative. It embodies the idea that you can do anything here. That a church like that would go through so many lives—it’s just so New York." .

Greenfield Hills Congregational Church, built in 1855 to replace the original gothic-style church, designed by RIchard Upjohn, the noted architect who also designed Trinity Church in New York City. The new church was designed by Alfred Nash. The entire cost at the time was $5,600 plus $276.80 for the bell. ______________________________ #greenfieldhillsct #congregationalchurch #richardupjohn #churchsteeple (at Greenfield Hill, Connecticut)

No. 22. Learned a short time ago that today is the birthday go Richard Upjohn, the Anglo-American architect who was a leader of the Gothic Revival movement. Here is a later design, the 1871 St. John’s Church in Dover, New Jersey. Great design; great pasties, too. . . . . #architecture #richardupjohn #gothic
