It is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, and a parish church, located on the east side of Fifth Avenue between 50th and 51st Streets in midtown Manhattan.

The cathedral is built of white or tan marble quarried in New York and Massachusetts and can accommodate 2,200 people.

The windows were made by artists in Chartres, Birmingham and Boston. The great rose window is one of Charles Connick‘s major works.
