St. Patrick's Old Cathedral Becomes The First Basilica of NYC

St. Patrick's Old Cathedral was inaugurated last Sunday as a basilica. The cathedral is located in Little Italy, at 260-264 Mulberry Street between Prince and Houston Streets. It has been a central place of worship for New York's Catholics since 1809. The cathedral was used in such films as "The Godfather" (Part I and Part III) and "Mean Streets."
