Biographical history
Trinity Episcopal Cathedral is the cathedral seat of the Episcopal Diocese of Southeast Florida. Organized in 1896, it is the oldest church in the original city limits of Miami and was elevated to cathedral status in 1970 with the creation of the Southeast Episcopal Diocese. The present building was constructed at North Bayshore Drive and NE 16th Street on land purchased in 1923 at the height of the Florida real estate boom. The building was designed by Miami Architect Harold Hastings Mundy and completed in 1925. Citing its architectural and historical significance, the cathedral was placed on the U. S. Department of the Interior's Register of National Historic Places.
