Architecture

-Saint Patrickʼs Old Cathedral

-32 Prince Street

-The corner stone of Old St. Patrick's - the city's first

Cathedral Church

-Beneath the church lies a labyrinth of well-kept mortuary

vaults and outside, is a cemetery containing many old
graves and tombstones.

-The Old Cathedral ceased to be the seat of the Archdiocese

of New York and became a parish church on May 25,1879.

-One of the first sites to be named a New York landmark

-On Saturday’s the church opens its doors to shoppers, as

young, up and coming designers set up and sell their goods
in the recreation hall.

-Puck Building

-from the Romanesque Revival

-295-30 Lafayette Street

-Once the printing facility of J. Ottmann Lithographing Company and

the Puck Magazine, which ceased publication in 1918, the building now
contains office space as well as ballrooms for large events on both the
ground floor and the top floor.

-The building once housed numerous independent printing firms and

related printing services such as type setters and a printing ink
company, Superior Printing Ink. The odor of printing ink permeated the
building for many years.
