The congregation of St. Luke's has its origin in one established in 1844, when the African-American membership of the city's Trinity Church on the Green separated to organize it. At first they met in a chapel owned by Trinity, and then they purchased the building of an African-American Baptist congregation in 1852. They began a building drive in 1894 to raise funds for construction of this building, which was completed in 1905. It was designed by the local firm of Brown & von Beren, who did extensive work in the city in the early decades of the 20th century; it is one of a small number of churches designed by that firm. [2]
