Constructed in 1766, this chapel represents one of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in the city and is the oldest colonial-era church in the borough. It holds significant historical importance as it survived the September 11, 2001 attacks unscathed and provided refuge for recovery workers during the aftermath. The chapel functions as both a place of worship and a memorial, hosting cultural and religious events that reflect its deep ties to the community and history.

Designated as a National Monument, the chapel maintains its original architectural features while serving as a space for spiritual reflection and remembrance. It is fully wheelchair accessible and free to enter, welcoming over a million visitors annually. Its role as a memorial to September 11 and its historical status make it a notable site for those interested in architecture, history, and memorials.
