The Chapel of the Good Shepherd is a historic Episcopal church at 543 Main Street on Roosevelt IslandinManhattan, New York City, New York, United States. Designed by architect Frederick Clarke Withers and built in 1888, it was originally an Episcopal chapel and is now the Good Shepherd Community Ecumenical Center, used for Episcopal worship services[2] and by other groups.[3]

History[edit]

The chapel was built in 1888, the cost of which was covered by a member of Grace Church Parish.[4] The chapel's first minister was Rev. William G. French, who had been a missionary on the island for fifteen years prior.[4]

The chapel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972,[1] and was restored in 2003.[5]
