Governor's Island, NY Chapel of St Cornelius the Centurion

            This is the second Chapel of St Cornelius the Centurion. It was designed by Charles C. Haight in 1905. The funds for the chapel were provided by Trinity Church in downtown Manhattan after the original 1847 chapel was falling apart.

The northern half of Governor's Island is a National Register historic district #85002435. It's also a National Historic Landmark. The National Park Service runs Castle Williams and Fort Jay as a National Monument. The rest of Governor's Island is administered by the Governors Island Preservation and Education Corporation. The island is required by law to have no housing (which is a shame - I think the Presidio model works very well).
