The Church of Saint Lawrence
The Church of Saint Lawrence is a summer chapel of the Episcopal Diocese of Central New York.
The church structure was designed by the Boston architect William Pitt Wentworth, and was completed in 1890. The architectural historian, Pierre du Prey, of Queens University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada wrote of the Church in 2004 that the "church exemplifies, under one shingled roof, the themes of river, rock, wood, 'old-time religion,' and a return to nature - all of which seems to underlie resort architecture in the Thousand Islands as solidly as the ageless granite."
