We sent our photographer to cover a meeting about Brooklyn Bridge Park at St. Ann and the Holy Trinity Church on Montague Street — and all the best photos were of the church itself!
But who could complain when they look this great? So enjoy this slideshow of the stunning 169-year-old Gothic Revival holy house, and if you want to read about the meeting, we have stories here and here.
