Grand Central Terminal, Rockefeller Center, and St. Patrick’s Cathedral

Between checking into our hotel and our evening plans we had some time to see some of New York’s most iconic sites. 


The view from our hotel at sunset, with the Queens skyline to the left and the Manhattan skyline to the right.


Getting a quick slice of pizza from Lucky’s Pizzeria & Cafe near the Queensboro Plaza station.


Grand Central Terminal opened in 1913 and features a beautiful astrological ceiling. 





Across the Grand Central Terminal and looking up at One Vanderbilt.
 

The Chrysler Building.


The incredible Christmas lighting display at Saks Fifth Avenue.


Rockefeller Center with the Christmas tree that was set up the day before.


The breathtaking interior of St. Patrick’s Cathedral.



While making our way around the Cathedral I took a photo of this man touching up the lettering on the pews. His name was Sebastian and gave me a bit of gold leaf. To see more of Sebastian’s art please visit sebastianworks.com



The almost life sized nativity scene. 



The alter. 


A patron praying in the niche of Saint Sharbel Makhlouf.






Back at the Rockefeller Center.
