Welcome to the MNYBA & the Upper West Side
The Upper West Side is a great neighborhood that has tons to see and do! As you walk around the UWS, you will see that it is a calm, family-oriented neighborhood. The Upper West Side sits between Central Park and Riverside Park and stretches from 59th Street all the way to 110th Street. We know that you are here for ministry, but we do hope that in your free time, you will check out our neighborhood and pray for the people here.
The 72nd Street station is half of a block away. There are three different trains that come through this building. The 1 Train is a local train. It makes every stop along the way. The 2 and 3 Trains are express trains meaning that they skip some stops to get to major destinations faster. To begin familiarizing yourself with the Subway system (We know it looks intimidating, but really it’s pretty easy) check out a map here! We are at 72nd Street, on the Red Line.

But by 1909 the cathedral’s plan was updated to the more fashionable Gothic style, and today, although officially “unfinished”, the structure is considered to be one of the largest cathedrals in the world.
