The Church at Ground Zero

This is St. Paul's Chapel located at 209 Broadway in New York City and is Manhattan's oldest public building in continuous use. Built in 1766, in a field away from the city, it has seen it's share of history including visits from George Washington and George Clinton (first Governor of New York). In the 8 months following the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, St. Paul's saw a lot of important people. The chapel served as place of rest for recovery workers. Volunteers served hot meals, made beds and prayed with those who worked so hard during operations at Ground Zero.
