St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church

An example of Greek revival architecture. Classically monumental, with simple, smooth masonry walls, grand portico and six ionic columns, presents a temple-form building.

The Renaissance-style stained-glass windows are of brilliant, flowing color in medallions and figures, against a background of gold and white. The left window group is devoted to four subjects connected with the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ - the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Nativity, and the Holy Family. The windows on the right are concerned with the closing scenes of Our Lord's ministry on earth - the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, the Resurrection and the Ascension. This view of the sanctuary displays the following statues (left to right) of Christ, St. Patrick, St. Therese of Liseux and St. Anthony.

The pews have been restored to their original wood and refinished, originally installed in 1840 and made from trees that grew along the Hudson River.
