St. Paul's Chapel
Landmarks of New York
This famous example of Georgian architecture built 1764-1766, with spire and portico added 1794-1796, is the only church structure surviving the colonial era of New York City. The design by Thomas mcBean closely followed that of St. Martin-in-the-Fields by James Gibbs. President Washington was a regular attendant following his inauguration in 1789 when New York was the national capital.
Marker is at the intersection of Broadway and Vesey Street, on the right when traveling south on Broadway.
