331 Hawthorne St
1991

The St. Gabriel's Episcopal Mission was established in 1905, meeting initially at the residence of one of its members. The following year, the congregation purchased a lot at Hawthorne Street to build a church, but funds were insufficient to complete the structure. The basement was built first, with a temporary frame structure above it to serve as worship space while funds were raised for a permanent building. These plans, however, never fully materialized. The initial structure was improved over the years, allowing it to serve around 200 people for over 80 years.
After a period of decline in the 1970s, the church was reincorporated and plans for a permanent building were resumed. A new two-story brick complex was completed in 1991, designed to provide space for both liturgical and community activities, including a senior center funded by the New York City Department for the Aging.
