About 850 Queen Village homes are on the PHC Register. Of these, about 800 still stand, many of them clustered on the streets closest to I-95. No doubt, there are just as many equally significant homes throughout Southwark that didn’t make the cut.

The Guide to Historic Buildings is a resource for residents and visitors interested in buildings that date back to before the Revolution. It presents the characteristic architectural styles in the neighborhood—Trinity and Bandbox houses, both wood frame and brick, Tenement (rental) houses, and London-style “double” Trinities. Exterior and interior details are illustrated by photos, drawings, and artwork.

Before there was Mario Lanza Park, there was the Trinity Episcopal Church. Consecrated in 1822, the church was razed almost 90 years ago and little trace remains. Queen Village resident Edwin Rivera shares his research into the history of the church and its place in our neighborhood. His article contains historic photos, floor plans, and more.
