    • Grace Congregational Church of Harlem is a congregational church in Harlem, New York City, New York. It has served African Americans including in the theater industry. The building, designed by Joseph Ireland in a Romanesque architectural style and completed in 1892, served two other congregations before this one.
      Marian Anderson and composer Duke Ellington attended the church and organist Sylvia Olden Lee was a congregant.
      It is at 308-310 139th Street in the Dorrance Brooks Square Historic District. A proposal to redevelop the property would demolish the church and incorporate a new one into a building with housing units.
