This is a really beautiful church. They always have activities going on and is worth the visit just for the architecture and history of it.

Progressive Episcopal church housed in a picturesque, architecturally beautiful building.
John James AUDUBON is one of my genealogical cousins.
His maternel grandparents are my ancestors
The next time I come to visit New-York, I will come to see the monument erected in the cemetery in honor of him.
And I will also visit your church.
I went to Church of the Intercession because my good friend, who is also the church organist was being honored. The church itself is quite large. Definitely cathedral size. It is connected to an on-site cemetary.
I sat in with their choir. The rehearsal space is just off the chancel space. I especially enjoyed the service because it was bilingual (English and Spanish). Prayers, h yuh mns and the sermon were done in both languages alternately. After the service, a lovely reception was held upsatirs in a spacious gym/hall. The food was tasty and the wait time was pretty good as well.
I look forward to returning for another mass.
My mother and I visited at an off-service time when the sanctuary was open. It is a beautiful sanctuary. We loved touring the cemetary, seeing the tomb of John James Audubon at the rear of the church. We loved touring the museum of Spanish American antiquities across the street. This is a fantastic touring site when visiting New York City and Manhattan .
The atmosphere in the tutorial is very good, I often come here to pray
Cut h smells like sulfur and I swear I saw some ghosts near it. Still. The tamales are nice

Clement Clark Moore was a gift to us all
His story lives on in our hearts forever.
Totally enjoyed
I hope it will be shown again for many years
to come.
Go visit. Beautiful church and atmosphere. You will be inspired to give thanks.
Beautiful church with a real organ and live organist- lovely service honoring Martin Luther King presided by Rev. Rhonda. Amazing choir and friendly and welcoming congregation.
A warm and welcoming Episcopal Church in a beautiful Gothic setting.
Disclaimer: I am in the choir for the sung mass in English @10am Sunday.
If you want to see an example of the large historic Church of the Intercession in upper Manhattan, set in a large garden and cemetery with notable men such as James Audubon and John Jacob Astor buried on the grounds and a monument to another Astor who had gone down the Titanic disaster, this is the place to visit.
The location is pleasant and serene with Hudson River views. The impressive Church of the Intercession, circa 1910-1915, seems ancient. The grounds surrounding the church are actually Trinity Church's uptown cemetery and are about 23 acres in total area, divided on both east and west sides of Broadway from Riverside Drive to Amsterdam Avenue and between 153rd and 155th Streets, a bucolic location in New York City.
I entered through a cemetery gate on West 155th Street and walked around looking at graves of a few well known people, then past the only mauseleum in Manhattan. I loved every minute of this trip uptown and may return to see the church interior.
Nice and inviting congregation. Great organ and music. Beautiful space.
Very good church. Priest is wonderful in his sermons and has a nice personality. Church gets packed on religious days. Church is over 100 years old and it's a beauty to look at.
A Blessing to the community and to all that visit...
Beautiful church and cemetery in Washington Heights. I lived across from this church for a year and saw so many things getting filmed!
