Response of diocesan Trustees to landmarking of St. John's in Jersey City
![](https://dioceseofnewark.org/sites/default/files/default_images/edn-header-default_1.jpg)
Yesterday the City Council of Jersey City voted to name St. John's Church in Jersey City, closed since 1994, a local landmark.
John Garde, Esq., president of the diocesan Trustees, said, "We're disappointed in the actions of the City Council, which does nothing to resolve the status of the property, for all the reasons articulated in the letter we sent to the City Council prior to their vote."
The Trustees' letter to the City Council is reprinted below.
