St. Patrick's Parish and Buildings is a historic church on Grand Street, Ocean and Bramhall avenues in Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey, United States.[3] It was built in 1868 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The stained glass windows in the church were destroyed in the Black Tom explosion of 1916.[4]

The church appears in the HBO crime drama The Sopranos four times, standing in for a church in Newark in the pilot, season three's "Another Toothpick," season four's "Watching Too Much Television," and season six's "The Ride."[5]
