Historical Information
Built in 1908 to meet the growing needs of the mission school operated by the neighboring Episcopal Church of the Transfiguration — and named after Julia F. Goelet, the school’s founder whose bible rests in the structure’s cornerstone — the Goelet Memorial library operated as a library and community center until the 1950s. The structure has since been remodeled into apartments, and is now seeking a new owner ready to save and rehabilitate this amazing property! More information coming soon!
