    St. Luke’s Place is in the middle of a busy and somewhat run down street. Mixture of buildings, some look great and others not good.

    We came across this Church when exploring South Greenwich Village in NYC. Built in 1926-1928 this large Catholic church has a beautiful interior. Well worth a visit if in the area. It is Free to enter.

    The location of the stonewall memorial. It’s interesting art work and a nice location overall. It’s probably a like or hate it as it’s art.

    We were just taking a leisurly stroll though the park. Many things happening on the weekend. Groups playing music, people singing, artists etc, We spent a few minutes just listening to the piano player under the arch. If you want a free activity this is one on the list.

    This neglected building stands on the corner between Christopher St and Grove St. In this area of high priced property, it seemed remarkable that a building of such size could be left empty and forlorn. I knew from my guide book that it had been built as a dispensary to care for the poor but as I was intrigued to know more, I did a bit more research. Apparently, the dispensary had to close after incurring legal debts arising from being sued for their refusal to treat a person with Aids. The building was later sold to a property acquirer William Gottlieb and since his death has been owned by his descendants. The deeds impose tight restrictions on further use and so the property remains empty. A proposal to open it as a resource for homeless people has been thwarted which seems a shame given current need and the intentions of the original owners. I think I will check  on any future progress as it has whetted my appetite to follow the story.

    Happened to walk through this when I was on my way to the Strand. Took a moment to remember. With more time, I'd have stayed to drink my coffee.

    Saint Josephs in Greenwich Vilage is believed to be the first Catholic Church that was built in New York City. It’s very simple.
