This church was founded in 1823, and the impressive cathedral was built in the French Gothic style right in the heart of what is now Midtown.

The Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine is not merely for the faithful, but for anyone who appreciates impressive architecture.

Inside, the large pipe organ, a number of stained glass windows and artist-created altars present a magnificent image. Inside the church, there is a poet's corner as well, which notes the distinguished contributions of celebrated American authors. Construction on the church began in 1882 and though it has received countless refurbishments and additions, it is still not complete according to the original design.

Built in 1918, this large and beautiful Episcopal church is distinguished by its Byzantine architecture. The building was designed by Bertram Goodhue and contains a portal (moved from an earlier building) by Stanford White. Because it sits on some of the city's most valuable real estate, St. Bartholomew's struggled against developers for years, and finally became a test case for New York City's landmark preservation law. Today, it is home to a thriving congregation and sponsors many community outreach programs. The popular Cafe St. Bart's is run by the church.
