I took the one-hour guided tour of this huge cathedral in the Morningside section of Manhattan and found it utterly fascinating.

The building is not nearly as elaborate as the cathedrals of Europe, so don't expect that level of rich adornment. This will be a nice place when they get it finished in another 100 years or so.

It's a beautiful study in architecture, history and may things offered there!

I took one of the public tours, this one at 11 AM on a weekday. Just six of us, enjoying an hour or so of well informed, detailed, entertaining commentary. A great glimpse into New York of 100 or so years ago. Thanks, Bill!

Went here for Easter Sunday Service. Beautiful church and service. The musical presentation was phenomenal. The choir and organ music was lovely. I've never seen so many bishops and clergy in an Episcopal church! It will be a masterpiece when it is completed.

The cathedral is a lovely place to sit and say a few prayers.

The peacfulness, the architecture the whole ambians for a Cathedral was just amazing. If anyone is just vising this is a place to see, you will be in awww..
