Description

St. Mary Star of the Sea Roman Catholic Church in New London was founded largely to serve the new influx of Irish immigrants who had recently taken up residence in New London to work in the local coastal industries. Originally operating out of a storefront on Bank Street, the church moved to its Huntington Street location in 1876. Besides the 1911 addition of the tower, the church, designed in 1870 by Patrick Charles Keely, a “renowned ecclesiastical architect from New York,” remains largely unchanged to this day.
