Built in 1882 by Rutherford Stuyvesant as a part of St. Mark's parish; it was designed by James Renwick Jr. who also designed St. Patrick's Cathedral. In 1937 it was bought by and became the Carpartho Russian Orthodox Church. It is located across the street from Tompkins Square Park which is hosting the Howl Festival this weekend. There are big inflated toys for the kids and theater performances.
Look at www.howlfestival.com for information about this yearly event.
Around the north and east borders of the park for about 3 city blocks there were 4' x 6' posters of individual art works.
