Circular Congregational Church

Meeting Street takes its name from this place. The congregation that gathered here around 1681 — English Congregationalists, Scots Presbyterians, and French Huguenots together — called their building the White Meeting House, and the street followed. The current structure, the third on this site, was built in the Richardsonian Romanesque style to plans by Stephenson & Greene of New York, and is named for an earlier circular building designed by Robert Mills. The graveyard is the oldest burial ground in the city.
