One of many fascinating examples of ethnic succession in the Ironbound is this 1848 Second Dutch Reformed Church, then, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, now an Evangelical Protestant congregation.

This church formerly had a tall steeple, but the steeple was removed after World War II. The building became Our Lady of Mt. Carmel in 1890, and was one of the first parishes in Newark to serve Italians. Mother Frances Xavier Cabrini herself, the first American citizen to be canonized, operated a school in the basement here.
