==Former structures==
The congregation's first location was opened for service in January 1835, in a plain church at the corner of Great Jones Street and fashionable Lafayette Place.
The second location, built from 1872 to 1876〔 at the southwest corner of Madison Avenue and East 44th Street,〔[''The WPA Guide to New York'' (1939) 1982:236f; Gray 2006〕 was designed by James Renwick, the architect of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, in the Lombardic style.〔 The building was embellished in 1902–1903 with a triple French Romanesque Revival portal by Stanford White,〔[http://www.stbarts.org/stbartshistory.asp "St. Bartholomew’s History."] From the church Web site. Retrieved 2010-04-01.〕 who took as his inspiration the church of Saint-Gilles, Gard, between Arles and Nîmes, which White had admired in 1878; the sculptures in the tympana are Renaissance-inspired. The portal was paid for by the family of Cornelius Vanderbilt II as a memorial; Vanderbilt's father, William H. Vanderbilt, had sold the site to the church. The magnificent bronze doors, with bas-reliefs in panels depicting episodes from the Old and New Testaments, were carried out by some of New York's established sculptors: Andrew O'Connor, working freely under the general direction of Daniel Chester French,〔O'Connor was a primary assistant of French.〕 executed the main door; the south door was executed by Herbert Adams, the north door by Philip Martiny.
