St. James's Episcopal Church is an historic Episcopal church at 1991 Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The parish was founded in 1864 as a mission from Christ Church. The Richardsonian Romanesque building was built in 1888–89 to a design by Henry M. Congdon. The church was built on the site of the Davenport Tavern, a landmark that had stood on that site since c. 1757 (a portion of which was relocated to Somerville, where it still stands).{{cite web |url=https://mhc-macris.net/details?mhcid=cam.244|title=MACRIS inventory record for St. James Episcopal Church|publisher=Commonwealth of Massachusetts |access-date=2014-03-22}}
