The temple bar building was build in 1901 by George L. Morse. At the time of its construction it was the highest building in Brooklyn!
This 13 story building has three verdigris copper clad cupolas. Each of them with beautiful sculpted female faces, and the unique cresting are among the highlights of Court Street’s skyscraper row.
If you look up you can see rows of lion’s head ring the building, bands of cornices, a balcony, and then there’s those cupolas.
The Temple Bar building was once a headquarters for the practice of law, therefore the Bar. It was one of he most popular and photographed building I the area and many period postcards remain featuring it.

Nice and small little church, with a statue of Plymouth himself protecting two slaves. Really nothing to special but if you have the time and are already in the area (maybe you want to go to Brooklyn Bridge). Then don't be afraid of dropping by.
