St Roch's Church

St. Roch's Church, established in 1899, was once a vital Roman Catholic parish located at 525 Wales Avenue, Bronx, NY. Though it has been merged with the St. Anselm's parish as of August 1, 2015, and now does not regularly celebrate Mass or sacraments, its rich history and the community's connection to the church endure. The church's architectural significance and cultural contributions were prominent in the East Morrisania neighborhood, serving the spiritual needs of the local community for over a century. While the building is currently listed for sale following its reduced usage, St. Roch's remains a landmark of faith and community heritage.
