Summary edit

Description
English: Despite the construction of many skyscrapers around the church, Trinity Church has retained very important spiritual values in the heart of Manhattan, and still serves as a place of worship and meditation for Christians. When the church was dedicated on May 1, 1846, its spire topped with a golden cross dominated the skyline of lower Manhattan. Trinity Church was thus a welcome beacon for ships arriving in New York Harbor.
Français : Malgré la construction de nombreux gratte-ciel autour de l'église, Trinity Church a conservé des valeurs spirituelles très importantes dans le coeur de Manhattan, et sert toujours de lieu de culte et de méditation pour les chrétiens. Lors de la consécration de l'église le 1er mai 1846, sa flèche surmontée d'une croix dorée dominait le panorama urbain du sud de Manhattan. Trinity Church était ainsi un phare bienvenu pour les bateaux qui arrivaient dans le port de New York.
