Faith in the city

Faith runs deep here, and it runs in every direction

New York is a Catholic city before it is anything else. Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island sit under the Archdiocese of New York, while Brooklyn and Queens have a diocese of their own. But that is only the first layer. Mainline Protestant and Episcopal institutions have shaped the place since it was New Amsterdam, and the historically Black Protestant churches of Harlem and central Brooklyn are among the most influential in the country.

Then there is everything migration brought. Large Korean and Chinese Protestant congregations gather around Flushing. West African, Filipino and Latino Catholic communities are woven through every borough, and Caribbean churches anchor much of Brooklyn. Union Theological Seminary and Fordham have been training clergy here for generations. Whatever tradition you grew up in, somebody in this city grew up in it too.

Meeting up

Where a first coffee actually works

The good thing about a first meeting in New York is that you never have to commit to dinner. A walk is a perfectly respectable date here, and if the conversation is not going anywhere there is a subway entrance every few blocks. Free and public beats expensive and loud, especially the first time.

Easy places to say hello

  • Central Park — 843 acres and endless low-pressure walking loops
  • The High Line — free elevated park on an old rail viaduct, Chelsea to Hudson Yards
  • Bryant Park — midtown lawn with free chairs and cafe kiosks
  • Little Island — small free park built out over the Hudson at Pier 55
  • Governors Island — car-free island park, a short ferry ride, open year-round
Distance

How far is too far in New York

New Yorkers measure distance in minutes rather than miles, and the round-the-clock subway means a weeknight coffee in another borough is genuinely doable in a way it simply is not in most American cities. Forty-five minutes each way is ordinary here and nobody thinks twice about it.

That said, the rivers are real. Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island each have their own gravity, and plenty of people quietly filter by train line as much as by neighbourhood. Worth knowing before you rule somebody out for living far away.

Also within reach

  • Hoboken, NJ — about 15 minutes by PATH
  • Jersey City, NJ — 10 to 20 minutes across the Hudson by PATH

  • Yonkers — 30 to 40 minutes north on Metro-North
  • White Plains — 35 to 45 minutes north on Metro-North
  • Stamford, CT — 50 to 60 minutes northeast on Metro-North
