Brooklyn Heights’ historic St. Ann and Holy Trinity Church gets $250K grant from national program
Will be used to restore church’s tower
The historic St. Ann and the Holy Trinity Episcopal church on Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights is one of 15 churches nationwide — and the only one in the New York metro area — to be chosen for this year’s National Fund for Sacred Places awards.
The program, managed by Partners for Sacred Places in collaboration with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, is giving each of the congregations up to $250,000, as well as access to experts and consultants.
According to Allison King, grants and program manager at Partners for Sacred Places, the object of the grant is to “stabilize the tower.” She added that the church has applied three times for the program, and this is the first time it’s been chosen.
