St Columba Church

St. Columba Episcopal Church, built in 1927, is a notable example of English Gothic Revival architecture designed by Lancelot Sukert, who is also recognized for his work on the Scarab Club in Midtown Detroit. The church features a cruciform plan, a prominent crenellated belltower, and is sheathed in multi-toned limestone, showcasing intricate stained glass windows throughout its nave.

Adjacent to the church is the St. Columba Activity Hall, a striking three-story Elizabethan-style building that stands out in the Jefferson Chalmers Historic Business District. With its storefronts beneath five stone segmental arches and distinctive design elements, the hall complements the architectural significance of the church while enhancing the character of the surrounding area.
