Opened in 1930 and modeled after the 13th Century gothic cathedral in Chartres, France, The Riverside Church overlooks the Hudson River, Grant’s Tomb, Columbia University, and West Harlem. As the tallest church tower in North America, Riverside features spectacular 360-degree views and the 74-bell Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial Carillon, with one of the largest tuned bells in the world, weighing in at 20-tons. Take the “tower tour” to ascend the bell tower and stay for the 43rd Annual Handbell Festival on Saturday.
