They produced fine public commissions as well, such as the Boston Museum of Fine Arts (1872) and Boston Young Men’s Christian Association Building. Sturgis was the architect of Emmanuel Church in Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA. This church was founded by his brother, Major Russell Sturgis, Jr., in 1882.
