A little bit about the Church of St Nicholas of Myrna, it is located on 88th Street near Lexington Ave, and according to a lady who was passing by it is one of the oldest churches in NYC, I couldn't find to much about it online, but I did find out that it was constructed in 1886 by German immigrants and is a gothic style.

Here is a shot looking along the side of the church with the stained glass windows there are some nice color and light coming into the church.
You can see the ornate woodwork on both the pews an the upper layer surrounds, and also the beautiful tall Stained glass windows, but something about the windows seemed out of place in a church as old as this one is to me.
I wonder if you see it.

And closer in on a couple of the windows, what really surprised me about these Stained glass windows is that to me they look more modern and abstract than what I thought would be the more classical style in an old church like this.

And another pair of the windows, even though they are not what I expected they are still so beautiful.

Want to have your post on the map too?
What a beautiful edifice. The colors on the windows add to its sophistication.
@amelin Thanks :)
Great shots JJ! I love stained glass! Such a delicate work! The majority of the Churches that I saw before with stained glass windows were with religious motive, but the windows in your post are totally different! They are very nice , also I like the combination of colors!
@maruharraca Thanks I to loved stained glass, these windows really surprised me with the style never seen like this either

Bright colorful windows are beautiful in this church. Great contrast to dark wood work. I agree that the modern designs are interesting.
@steven-patrick Arent those design so unique thanks for visiting
Beautiful vitrails!
@lymepoet its an amazing church
howdy sir tattoodjay! so you just walk around NYC and take photos of interesting sites? That method right there is an interesting post if that's what you do.
I love these magnificent old churches and cathedrals and this is a beautiful, enriching experience..thank you sir!
@janton These days walking is my form of exercise so I often go into the city early and head somewhere for a walk for an hour seeing what I can find
yes sir I can imagine that it would be fascinating to do so and probably produces alot of post material?
what kind of career are you involved in? Because for working a regular job you seem to be quite a prolific poster!
@janton part from work and photo walks I don't go out much so most evenings I am editing photos and preparing posts, I try and do two posts a day for the most part :)
As for work I work in Management of Telecommunications and IT networks
oh thank you for getting back to me sir..well the management sounds like a stressful job and I don't know how you have time to do 2 posts a day while working full time.
maybe you're not married?
@janton LOLNO I am married, but I also spend about 3 to 4 Hours a day on a train, so I have time to prepare posts while commuting :)
oh wow..good day JJ! man..I would think the commute would be dreadful but if you are able to use that as your steemit time then it does indeed work out perfectly for you!
It's the ultimate in efficiency and time use. great job sir JJ!
I mean great job JJ!
@janton I dont mind the commute at all, the trains are fairly comfortable and I can do Emails, STeemit and snooze all depending on my mood so it goes fast
