Serbian Orthodox Cathedral of St. Sava
West 25th Street
New York, September 2008
“Trinity Chapel was offered to the Serbs as well as to the Russian and Greek Orthodox communities. It was decided to sell the property to the Serbs for several reasons: 1) the Serbian people had no church on the east coast of America; 2) the project had the support of Yugoslav King Peter II; 3) the long-standing relationship of St. Bishop Nikolai with the Anglican Church in England and his particularly close connections with Bishop Manning and Canon Edward West.” (History of the Cathedral of St. Sava in New York, Serbian Orthodox Cathedral of Saint Sava)
