Description
Once farmland owned by Peter Stuyvesant, the last Dutch director-general of New Amsterdam, Stuyvesant Square was one of the city's most fashionable addresses by the 1840s. St. George's Episcopal Church, built 1846-56 and rebuilt after a fire in 1865-67, is one of the first and most significant examples of early Romanesque Revival church architecture in America; originally, two tall spires made the corner towers about twice their present height. Well-known names associated with the area and church include J.P. Morgan, the pioneering African-American singer-compose Harry Burleigh, and Antonín Dvořák, who wrote his "New World" Symphony in a house nearby.
