History
Established May 19, 1851, on the northwest corner of Dearborn and Madison streets. The church was moved to Peck Court and Wabash streets in 1857. In 1867, the need for a larger church caused a new building to be built on Wabash Avenue between fourteenth and fifteenth streets. On September 26, 1915, Grace Episcopal Church burnt to the ground. For the next ten years, worship was conducted in the Parish House. In 1928, a new church building was erected at 1450 S. Indiana Avenue. The church moved again in 1966 to its current church building at 33 West Jackson Street.
