I went for an event to celebrate and honor Dr. Martin Luther King. A wonderful event with wonderful people.

This is the location of the longest standing religious house of worship in New York. The original building was a small chapel built by Peter Stuyvesant, whose remains are interned at the foot of the “new” church. The courtyard is also a graveyard which had many notable historical figures including Daniel Tompkins who was the fourth governor of New York (1807 - 1817), and the sixth vice president of the United States (1817 to 1825).The church also acts as a center for arts with an ongoing calendar of events. It is said that first Sam Shepherd play was performed here in the mid 1960’s just to give you a sense.If you are in the area or live nearby it’s worth a visit and plan to return when there is something on.New Years Day 2024 will feature a poetry marathon from 11am till Midnight. Amazing right!??!!

One of the few buildings in New York that is hundreds of years old. In the beating heart of the east village and a nice place to sit outside to rest or go inside if you can to experience Colonial charm or take a moment to contemplate a higher authority.

Excellent performance space. But an air-conditioner would be REALLY great.

St. Marks Historical District is an important area for many reasons. Beautiful neighborhood and the church is home to many cultural activities.

Based just on the historical aspects, a fascinating place. A Stuyvesant built the earliest chapel here in 1651. Present structure started in 1795 and this structure consecrated in 1799. The steeple was completed in 1828, wrought iron fence 1835. Its position facing true South is due to the site’s age. It was built on a country lane long before the grid came along.
