DescriptionMariners Church, Jefferson Avenue, Detroit, MI.jpg
English: Built in 1849, this Gothic Revival-style building, known as the Mariners Church, was designed by Calvin N. Otis and Hugh Moffat, and was originally a parish of the Episcopal Diocese of Michigan, with the land having been originally donated by Julia Anderson in 1842. The church stood on its original site until it was relocated to its present site in 1955 to make way for an urban renewal project, and the church was renovated upon the completion of the move, adding the present bell tower. The building features a rough-hewn limestone exterior, a gabled roof with octagonal towers at the corners of the building, buttresses on the exterior facades, a rose window on the principal facade with a projected vestibule featuring a gothic arched door opening and crenellated parapet below, gothic arched window bays on the side and rear facades, and a bell tower with a crenellated parapet, louvers in gothic arched openings, and a rectilinear form. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, and remains in use as an Anglican-affiliated Church.
