Northampton Architecture- Quadrant 3

Unitarian Church

The Unitarian Church, located at 220 Main Street, was built in 1825. Its design is in Greek Revival style.

The Unitarian Church formalized the revolt against Calvinist Doctrine and affirmed the belief in man's power to do good works. The Free Congregational Society of Florence, a second major source of Unitarianism in Northampton, is now a part of the Unitarian Society in the center of Northampton. (The Free Congregational Society was for many years housed in the now-demolished Cosmian).The original structure on Main Street was destroyed by fire in 1903; a new brick and granite building, similar in style, is on the same site.
