1884: BEFORE IT WAS TRINITY CATHEDRAL


Here's an interesting article on the original Trinity P.E. church, once located on Academy Street in downtown Trenton, and ultimately moving out to West State Street and Overbrook Avenue in the western section of Trenton. Perhaps a parishioner of the current church can tell us if the Charles Roebling window was transferred to the cathedral.

Hey Tom, as always, I love your web posts. I just wanted to make a small correction on the location of Trinity Cathedral. It is located at the corner of West State Street and South Overbrook Avenue.

Keep up the good work.

You were correct, Tom. The Trinity Church was on Academy St. near Broad St. In 1930 it became Trinity Cathedral and merged with the All Saints' Church on West State St. where the large cathedral was built.

Tom - Just as a point of interest, some of the windows in this beautiful church are Tiffany windows. Lakeside Girl
