St. Paul's Chapel, Columbia University

October 8, 2021

After years of delay due to funding issues, construction on St. Paul's Chapel on Morningside campus began in 1904 and was completed in 1907. Today, the chapel serves as a venue for worship services and campus events, but also as a place for private meditation and contemplation.
