The Saint Mark's School and Garage occupied northeast corner of the intersection of Durant Avenue and Ellsworth Street. Page and Turnbull, Architects, produced an Historic Resource Inventory on the complex in 2011, and described it as follows: "The entire base of the project site is occupied by a painted concrete parking garage; the second level of the property features a paved patio, a playground area, a two-story school building, and a fellowship hall. The parking garage and school were designed by designed by Bay Area architect Francis Joseph McCarthy and constructed in 1961. The patio level of the property can be accessed directly from St. Mark’s Church, as well as from several additional locations: a concrete stair near the intersection of Durant Avenue and Ellsworth Street; from wide concrete stairs between the main church building and the fellowship hall on Ellsworth Street; and from stairs at Durant Avenue. The patio features brick and aggregate paving and is surrounded by a low concrete parapet wall with a metal railing above."

The Saint Mark's Episcopal Church, School and Garage, were in danger of being demolished in 2011, to make way for the Lion's Hall, a five-story, mixed-use Group Living Accommodation (GLA), built for local students.
