The Polish National Catholic Church of The Holy Cross (PNCC) at 159 15th Street in Brooklyn, New York was a Polish National Catholic Church parish founded in 1912.[https://www.google.com/books/edition/Polish_Genealogical_Society_Newsletter/0ywxAQAAIAAJ?hlen&gbpv1&bsq=%22Polish+National+Catholic+Church%22+brooklyn&dq=%22Polish+National+Catholic+Church%22+brooklyn&printsec=frontcover] The building was formerly Greenwood Baptist Church before it moved to its present location. The Holy Cross Church closed and the buildings sold to a developer and demolished in 2007. The front facade of the Church of the Holy Cross was in the Romanesque revival style and was composed of three round Roman arches below a peaked roof. While the Polish National Catholic Church began as a Polish national movement, it eventually welcomed people of all ethnic, racial, and social backgrounds.. The parish was one of two Polish National Catholic Church parishes in Brooklyn. It also owned a cemetery on Long Island.[https://www.google.com/books/edition/Polish_Genealogical_Society_Newsletter/0ywxAQAAIAAJ?hlen&gbpv1&bsq=%22Polish+National+Catholic+Church%22+brooklyn&dq=%22Polish+National+Catholic+Church%22+brooklyn&printsec=frontcover] See Also
