St. Mark's Episcopal Church

St. Mark's Episcopal Church is located on Main Street in Hoosick Falls, New York, United States. It is a mid-19th century brick building. The congregation itself was founded in the 1830s. Architect Henry Dudley designed it according to the Ecclesiological principles of Episcopal church design, after

English country parish churches, which they held to be the ideal for churches of that denomination. Uncharacteristically, he used brick rather than stone. He was probably commissioned by local industrial magnate Walter A. Wood, a member of the church. Several additions and renovations were made to the original building in the decades after its construction, most notably a parish hall in the early 20th century. In 2000 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
