Saint Mary Place

This 1898 school building, originally constructed for the children of the congregation at Saint Mary Star of the Sea Church in New London, CT, was converted into affordable supportive housing in collaboration with The Connection, Inc. Saint Mary Place now features twenty studio and one-bedroom apartments with historic detailing and modern amenities.

The team worked with the State Historic Preservation Office to restore historic features and to add new elements that compliment the new use while respecting the original.
