St. Bartholomew's Church

Midtown · Byzantine Revival church · Free

A block from the Seagram, this is the warm counter-argument to all that cold glass. Bertram Goodhue's Byzantine-Revival church has a low golden dome, polychrome tile, and a deep, warm light at midday. Step in off Park Avenue and the temperature of the light changes completely.

A 1919 Byzantine-Revival church on Park Avenue — a warm, gold interior amid the glass towers.
