Charles Street Meeting House, Boston, Massachusetts
View Original Description
The Charles Street Meeting House, is an early-nineteenth-century historic church in Beacon Hill at 70 Charles Street, Boston, Massachusetts. The church has been used over its history by several Christian denominations and is a good example of reuse and adaptive reuse, having recently been renovated into a mixed use complex heavily featuring office use.
The Meeting House is part of the Boston Black Heritage Trail and located in the Beacon Hill Historic District, the nineteenth-century altered sanctuary was relatively intact but much of the rest of the interior held little architectural significance in comparison with the exterior. The National Park Service then permitted extensive vertical and horizontal internal subdivision provided that the developer incorporate some existing ornamental features.
