Places to see in ( New York - USA ) St Paul's Chapel
St. Paul's Chapel, nicknamed The Little Chapel That Stood, is an Episcopal chapel located at 209 Broadway, between Fulton Street and Vesey Street, in Lower Manhattan, New York City. Built in 1766, it is the oldest surviving church building in Manhattan, and one of the nation's finest examples of Late Georgian church architecture. It is a New York City Landmark and a National Historic Landmark.
A chapel of the Parish of Trinity Church, St. Paul's was built on land granted by Anne, Queen of Great Britain, designed by architect Thomas McBean and built by master craftsman Andrew Gautier. Upon completion in 1766, it was the tallest building in New York City. It stood in a field some distance from the growing port city to the south and was built as a chapel-of-ease for parishioners who thought the mother church inconvenient to access.
Built of Manhattan mica-schist with brownstone quoins, St. Paul's has the classical portico, boxy proportions and domestic details that are characteristic of Georgian churches such as James Gibbs' London church of St Martin-in-the-Fields, after which it was modelled. Its octagonal tower rises from a square base and is topped by a replica of the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates (c. 335 BC).
St. Paul's Chapel is a very active part of the Parish of Trinity Church, holding services, weekday concerts, occasional lectures, and providing a shelter for the homeless. The chapel has hosted many famous worshippers. George Washington worshiped here on his Inauguration Day, April 30, 1789. During the two years New York City was the country's capital, Washington attended services at St. Paul's while Trinity Church was being rebuilt. Hanging above Washington's pew is a painting of the Great Seal of the United States (adopted in 1782), which was commissioned by the Vestry in 1785. The artist of the painting is unknown.
Directly across the chapel from Washington's pew is the Governor's pew, which Governor George Clinton, the first Governor of the State of New York, used when he visited St. Paul's, is marked by The Arms of the State of New York to commemorate his service. Other historical worshipers have included Prince William, later William IV of the United Kingdom, Lord Cornwallis, Sir William Howe, Commander-in-Chief of British forces in America and several U.S. Presidents: Grover Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison, and George H. W. Bush.

Ground Zero and St Paul's Church, NYC, 3
Prior to our visit to ground zero in February 2009, (an NY birthday holiday treat for my wife Caroline), I was of the opinion, you reap what you sow as far as the whole 9-11 thing was concerned.
However, after visiting ground zero and especially St Paul's Church in the direct vicinity of Ground Zero, I wasn't at all prepared for the sincere intense sense of emotion which came over me whilst viewing the displays in the church.
From the pictures of lost loved ones to the patriotic banners and messages of support from communities and firefighters from all over the world, you cannot help but feel completely and utterly humbled by how not only the ordinary people of NY suffered but of how the whole community rallied and supported each other through the most torrid event that the city has ever encountered - an event which hopefully will never be repeated . . . . or forgotten.
Easter Day Parade in New York filmed on Sunday April 16, 2017
Easter Day Parade in New York
The Easter parade is an American cultural event consisting of a festive strolling procession on Easter Sunday. Typically, it is a somewhat informal and unorganized event, with or without religious significance. Persons participating in an Easter parade traditionally dress in new and fashionable clothing, particularly ladies' hats, and strive to impress others with their finery. The Easter parade is most closely associated with Fifth Avenue in New York City, but Easter parades are held in many other cities. Starting as a spontaneous event in the 1870s, the New York parade became increasingly popular into the mid-20th century—in 1947, it was estimated to draw over a million people. Its popularity has declined significantly, drawing only 30,000 in 2008.
From the 1880's through the 1950's, New York's Easter parade was one of the main cultural expressions of Easter in the United States. It was one of the fundamental ways that Easter was identified and celebrated. The seeds of the parade were sown in New York's highly ornamented churches—Gothic buildings such as Trinity Episcopal Church, St. Patrick's Cathedral, and St. Thomas' Episcopal Church. In the mid-19th century, these and other churches began decorating their sanctuaries with Easter flowers. The new practice was resisted by traditionalists, but was generally well received. As the practice expanded, the floral displays grew ever more elaborate, and soon became defining examples of style, taste, abundance, and novelty. Those who attended the churches incorporated these values into their dress. In 1873, a newspaper report about Easter at Christ Church said More than half the congregation were ladies, who displayed all the gorgeous and marvelous articles of dress,... and the appearance of the body of the church thus vied in effect and magnificence with the pleasant and tasteful array of flowers which decorated the chancel.
USA: New York: Pope John Paul II Leads Mass in Central Park - 1995
The Pope led tens of thousands of Americans in an open air mass in New York's Central Park Saturday.
During his US trip, Pope John Paul II has not fought shy of addressing Americans about the widening gap between rich and poor in the U-S.
The poverty gap is a sensitive issue in a country where the religious right are talking of cutting back America's welfare spending.
The Pope has not shied away from controversial social and sexual issues that are political hot potatoes in America.
Priestly celibacy, the place of the family, and above all- abortion- have been familiar and constant themes on the Pontiff's lips.
When he appeared at New York's favorite recreation spot, Central park, on Saturday, the crowds were warm in their welcome.
He let them see him in his familiar Popemobile.
But the Pope stressed the value of human life in one of the world's hardest cities.

St.Patrick`s Cathedral New York City
St patrick`s Cathedral New York - December 2011.
The Cathedral of St. Patrick (commonly called St. Patrick's Cathedral) is a decorated Neo-Gothic-style Roman Catholic cathedral church in the United States and a prominent landmark of New York City. It is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, and a parish church, located on the east side of Fifth Avenue between 50th and 51st Streets in midtown Manhattan, New York City, New York, directly across the street from Rockefeller Center and specifically facing the Atlas statue.
According to Catholic News Service (CNS) and the Catholic News Agency (CNA), Cardinal Timothy Michael Dolan, the incumbent Archbishop of New York, announced before reviewing the city's parade on St. Patrick's Day 2012 that the Cathedral would undergo a massive five-year, three-phase, $175 million renovation because of crumbling bricks, faulty heating, and acid rain and pollution that has eaten away at the Tuckahoe marble of the 135-year-old church. Early donors and grants from the Archdiocese and the Trustees of the Cathedral have already raised $45 million for the first phase, which began in late March. This involves repairing, restoring, and cleaning the soot-covered exterior, and an extensive cleaning of the outside and inside surfaces of the stained glass windows. The Cathedral will remain open during the renovations and work will pause during Masses, according to the Cathedral's rector, Monsignor Robert T. Ritchie.
Construction of the cathedral
The Diocese of New York, created in 1808, was made an archdiocese by Pope Pius IX on July 19, 1850. In 1853, Archbishop John Joseph Hughes announced his intention to erect a new cathedral to replace the Old Saint Patrick's Cathedral in downtown Manhattan. The new cathedral was designed by James Renwick, Jr. in the Gothic Revival style. On August 15, 1858, the cornerstone was laid, just south of the diocese's orphanage. At that time, present-day midtown Manhattan was far north of the populous areas of New York City.
Work was begun in 1858 but was halted during the Civil War and resumed in 1865. The cathedral was completed in 1878 and dedicated on May 25, 1879, its huge proportions dominating the midtown of that time. The archbishop's house and rectory were added from 1882 to 1884, and an adjacent school (no longer in existence) opened in 1882. The spires were added in 1888, and an addition on the east, including a Lady chapel, designed by Charles T. Mathews, was begun in 1900. The Lady Chapel's stained-glass windows were made between 1912 and 1930 by English stained glass artist and designer Paul Vincent Woodroffe. In 1927 and 1931, the cathedral was renovated, which included enlarging the sanctuary and installing the great organ. The cathedral and associated buildings were declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976.
An extensive restoration of the cathedral was begun in 2012 and is planned to last 3 years at a cost of $177 million ----Wikipedia.com

From Wikipedia:
Longest span 1,595.5 ft (486.3 m)
Clearance below 133 ft (40.5 m)
Designer: John Augustus Roebling
Opened: May 24, 1883
The Brooklyn Bridge is a hybrid cable-stayed/suspension bridge in New York City. It connects the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn, spanning the East River. The Brooklyn Bridge has a main span of 1,595.5 feet (486.3 m) and a height of 133 ft (40.5 m) above Mean High Water.[b] It is one of the oldest roadway bridges in the United States and was the world's first steel-wire suspension bridge, as well as the first fixed crossing across the East River.
The Brooklyn Bridge started construction in 1869 and was completed fourteen years later in 1883. It was originally called the New York and Brooklyn Bridge and the East River Bridge, but it was later dubbed the Brooklyn Bridge. However, it was not named as such until the city government passed a law to that effect in 1915. Over the years, the Brooklyn Bridge has undergone several reconfigurations; it formerly carried horse-drawn vehicles and elevated railway lines, but now carries vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle traffic. Commercial vehicles are banned from the bridge.
Since opening, the Brooklyn Bridge has become an icon of New York City. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1964 and a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1972. The Brooklyn Bridge is also a New York City designated landmark. .

America's Tallest Church & A Drone
This video was made with a DJI Mavic at Riverside Church which is a Christian church in Morningside Heights, Upper Manhattan, New York City. It opened its doors on October 5, 1930. It is situated at 120th Street and 490 Riverside Drive, within the Columbia University Morningside Heights Campus, across the street from, and one block south of, President Grant's Tomb. Although interdenominational, it is also associated with the American Baptist Churches USA and the United Church of Christ. It is famous for its large size and elaborate Neo-Gothic architecture as well as its history of social justice. It was described by The New York Times in 2008 as a stronghold of activism and political debate throughout its 75-year history ... influential on the nation's religious and political landscapes. It has been a focal point of global and national activism since its inception.
The church was conceived by industrialist, financier, and philanthropist John D. Rockefeller Jr. (1874–1960),[2] and minister Harry Emerson Fosdick (1878–1969), as a large, interdenominational church in a neighborhood important to the city, open to all who profess faith in Christ. Its congregation includes more than forty ethnic groups. As of 2007, the church had a $14 million annual operating budget and a paid staff of 130. In 2012 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The tallest church in the United States, and 24th tallest in the world, Riverside was designed by the firm of Allen, Pelton and Collens. Henry C. Pelton and Charles Collens were commissioned by Rockefeller to travel across Spain and France to find inspiration for their project. They took for their model of the nave the 13th-century Gothic Chartres Cathedral, France. For the massive single bell tower that dwarfs the rest of the church, they modeled one of the towers at Laon, but here with a base 100 feet (30 m) square, and built on a steel frame the equivalent of a 22-story building (392 feet (119 m)).[21] Inlaid on the floor is a labyrinth. The church was begun in 1927 and, following delays caused by a spectacular fire in the wooden scaffolding, held its first service at the main altar on October 5, 1930.
The exterior buttressing is purely decorative, for the structure is supported on its steel frame, and its weight would not be sufficient to counter the weight of the vault. The writers of the WPA Guide to New York City (1939) noted Their smallness has the effect of making the building itself seem smaller than it is, so that its scale is scarcely impressive, even when seen at close range.
The west-facing main entrance, in the base of the tower, is based on the Porte Royale of Chartres, with the seated figure of Christ in the tympanum, flanked by the symbols of the Evangelists. The figures sculpted in the concentric arches of the doorway represent leading personalities of religion and philosophy, joined by great scientists. The nave has a seating capacity of 2,100.[22]
The tower houses a carillon that John D. Rockefeller Jr. donated in memory of his mother, Laura Spelman Rockefeller. Its final complement of 74 bronze bells (at the time the largest carillon of bells in the world—see also Kirk in the Hills) includes the 20-ton bourdon, the largest tuned bell in the world.
The church used to house a public observation deck on top of the carillon, closed since September 11, 2001.
The church was conceived as a complex social services center from the outset, with meeting rooms and classrooms, a daycare center, a kindergarten, library, auditorium and gym. It was designated a New York City Landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 2000.

Trinity Church - St. Paul's Chapel & Freedom Tower
newyorkwelcome.net
Trinity Church si trova al 79 di Broadway nella Lower Manhattan ed e' una storica e attiva parrocchia della Diocesi Episcopale di New York.
La prima Trinity Church, costruita nel 1696 era un edificio di pietra che si affacciava sul fiume Hudson, la costruzione fu pagata da tutti i cittadini che furono tassati senza differenza di culto religioso. Durante la Rivoluzione Americana la chiesa fu quasi completamente distrutta dall'incendio del 1776 e rimasero solo le sue rovine fino alla fine della rivoluzione, la seconda costruzione finita nel 1790 fu demolita nel 1839 a seguito delle abbondanti nevicate dell'inverno del 38/39 che danneggiarono gravemente il tetto. La presente Trinity Church fu costruita nel 1846, (dall'architetto Richard Upjohn) e il suo campanile alto 281 ft (86 metri) fu per molti anni la costruzione più alta nella Lower Manhattan, fu superato solo nel 1890 dal New York World Building, ora la chiesa si innalza all'ombra dei grattacieli del Financial District. Fu nel 1843 che a seguito della rapida crescita della comunità parrocchiale si decise di costruire una seconda chiesa, la Grace Church appunto, che si trova a nord sulla Broadway al n 802 e 10th St, entrambe le chiese furono terminate e consacrate nel 1846. Per la sua posizione e per la sua altezza Trinity Church era considerato il faro e il punto di riferimento per le navi in entrata al porto di New York.
Chiesa di culto episcopale è sicuramente la più famosa di New York.
St. Paul's Chapel, si trova tra Fulton e Vesey Street, fu costruita nel 1766 e serviva come cappella per tutti i parrocchiani che consideravano Trinity Church troppo lontana. Il suo interno è semplice con colonne colorate e contiene numerosi monumenti e memoriali che attestano la sua importanza nella storia di New York .
St. Paul's Chapel ha una partecipazione molto attiva all'interno della comunità di Trinity Church, offrendo servizi nei giorni feriali, concerti e conferenze, inoltre fornisce assistenza e rifugio per i senzatetto.
