Another historic religious building for me! Built in 1766, St. Paul's Chapel is the oldest surviving church building in Manhattan. It was one of a few structures in the area that didn't burn down during a massive fire in 1776 when a quarter of the city at the time burned to the ground. The church even has a cemetery that surrounds it as it sits on a full city block. It is a part of the National Historic Landmarks, so hopefully it's around for hundreds of more years to come!

St. Paul's Chapel is a stones throw away from where the Twin Towers used to stand. There is a very lovely memorial room in the chapel. My favorite thing about the display was the numerous hanging displays of paper cranes. Lots of people sent in 1000 paper cranes to send well wishes, support, and hope from wherever they came from. It was extremely touching.
