"worth seeing"
"It looks absolutely impressive how this small and old church stands next to the huge skyscrapers - paradoxical. You should definitely see it and it reflects a bit of the change in the city. Theoretically you can also visit the church."
"Per Wiki: "built in 1793 and extended in 1806, and now the rectory of the Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Bayley Seton...James Watson was the first Speaker of the New York State Assembly and a Federalist member of the New York and United States Senates...the building recalls the time when New York's merchant families lived at Manhattan's southern tip, near the river, in order to have an unobstructed harbor view and to be in close proximity to their shipping interests.""
"Beautiful old building that feels very misplaced in front of those skyscrapers."
