The building was designed by architects John A. Mitchell and Edward Elliot in 1874, who also crafted the Point Pleasant Gates and Halifax City Hall, and has played a significant role in the city's architectural heritage. However, the church faced financial difficulties in the 1880s, and the Halifax Explosion of 1917 caused severe damage and demolished the spire. By 1941, its congregation had dwindled, leading to its sale in 1949. It later served as a social center for St. Patrick's Church. In 1984, the church underwent a transformation into 17 condominiums, aptly named "The Marley" in honor of Bob Marley who passed away during the planning process.
