Manhattan - St. Paul's Chapel

St. Paul's Chapel is an Episcopal church in Lower Manhattan. The church was built in 1766 and is the oldest surviving church building in Manhattan. It is considered one of the nation's finest examples of Late Georgian church architecture.

 

The church was near the World Trade Center. During the collapse of The Towers on 911, the church suffered no damage, not even a broken window. It was nicknamed: "The Little Chapel that Stood".
