The Interchurch Center, Administrative building in Morningside Heights, New York, United States

The 19-story limestone building at 475 Riverside Drive spans 600,000 square feet and houses numerous religious organizations and nonprofit foundations.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower placed the cornerstone in 1958 before 30,000 people, marking the start of this ecumenical center funded by John D. Rockefeller Jr.

The building functions as a central location for multiple Protestant denominations, hosting regular concerts, exhibitions, and interfaith gatherings throughout the year.

The center maintains conference rooms, a cafeteria, wellness facilities, parking garage, and requires tenant organizations to hold 501c3 certification status.

The exterior limestone specifically matches the color of Riverside Church across the street, following a requirement from donor John D. Rockefeller Jr.
