Exploring churches in Manhattan is a hobby of mine. Whenever I have time, I like to scout out churches that I've never been to and visit. I happened to be in the neighborhood after having had lunch near by and found this church. The exterior of the church is a more sedate, Greek revival style with marble columns. I almost mistook it for a bank as I walked by. Thankfully they had the doors wide open and could clearly see inside that it was a church. Once you enter inside you'll be blown away by the ornate interior. The murals, stained glass windows, carved wooden beams, and marble altar are very reminiscent of churches in Europe. And the high, barrel vaulted ceilings give the church a feeling of grandeur that bellies its small size. It's a gorgeous old church with some of the best murals I've seen in the ceiling. I spent quite a long time just staring and meditating at them. I came during an off time and while the church was practically empty. So, I can't comment on the mass or services here as I've never attended one. But this church is just stunning and worth a visit just to see the interior.
