Trinity Chapel, New York University, Religious building in Washington Square, Manhattan, United States.

Trinity Chapel stands as a concrete structure within New York University campus, featuring modernist stained glass windows and minimalist design elements.

The architectural firm Eggers & Higgins completed this building in 1964, marking a period of expansion for New York University's facilities.

The chapel functioned as NYU's Generoso Pope Catholic Center, providing religious services and gatherings for students until its closure in 2009.

Located at 58 Washington Square South, the chapel served multiple purposes including ceremonies, lectures, and community events during its operational years.

New York University purchased the chapel for 25 million dollars in 2009, leading to its subsequent demolition for campus redevelopment.
