About Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church

The Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church is a Greek Orthodox church at West End Avenue and West 91st Street on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City. The church was built by Heins & LaFarge in 1893–94 as the Fourth Presbyterian Church. The church was sold to a Greek parish in 1952. The rusticated masonry façade with a sparing use of Venetian Gothic and Richardsonian Romanesque details and the square corner bell tower with a crenellated parapet embellished with gargoyle gutter-spouts reveal Richardson's training. Fine stained glass may be from Tiffany studios, or may be by John LaFarge, the architect's father, which would make them even rarer.
