Building of the Day: Calvary Baptist Church

A 30-story mixed-use tower in Midtown Manhattan combines boutique office space with a new home for the historic Calvary Baptist Church, founded in 1847. The congregation’s purpose-built facility includes classrooms, offices, and flexible spaces for education, youth programming, broadcasting, and community gatherings. At its center, a double-height sanctuary takes shape as a sculptural, wood-lined volume partially visible from West 57th Street, giving the church a renewed civic presence.
