Hi, I'm a fairly new and novice Wikipedia editor, although my fans will recognize me as the creator of the article on Larry Heinemann. I feel like this is a pretty important article that was missing from Wikipedia's extensive collection of pages related to 9/11. I would really appreciate help cleaning up this page. Also, I do not know how to put pictures up, in terms both of knowing when it's OK to use a picture that I find online and also of knowing how to upload pictures. There are many excellent photographs in the articles that I link to and I think at least a few below on this page.
Beyond the lack of pictures, this article is still a little skeletal. I've tried to very meticulous in my research. It would be great to have more information put on this page.

Is this just some church building that happened to be near the WTC and so (like so much else, including thousands of lives) destroyed in the attack? I'm not quite up on notability guidelines, but I'm pretty sure neither its being a well-frequented church nor being destroyed in an infamous terrorist attack warrant its getting an article. elvenscout742 21:45, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

A 100 year old church building in a major city should have some pictures out there somewhere? SchmuckyTheCat 19:04, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I have a scan of a photo which I took in 1992, of 90 West Street with St Nicholas' Church in the foreground. It's nothing special but it does give a good pperspective on the scale of the church and its 'unassuming' location. I would be more than happy for it to be used on this page if it would improve the quality. I just dont know how to go about loading it, or anything about copyright issues.

I uploaded a couple of photos of the church to the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Awesome444a444 ( talk • contribs) 00:08, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
This image from Voice of America's (VOA) website VOANews is a U.S. Government news agency, and may be the one without copyright issues you're looking for. Jonny99 ( talk) 08:03, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
I have submitted an email to the church via their website requesting that they upload any images they have to WP commons. If anyone has an image for this article I will be glad to help. I am removing the image request tag since it is impossible for anyone to provide a new image. Jarhed ( talk) 21:17, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
I removed this article from the Christianity project, since the project does not appear to have a topic that concerns notable structures. I added it to the NYC project. Jarhed ( talk) 21:59, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
Everything in the current Future Plans section of this article from the 3rd sentence down is plagiarized wholly from this Fox News article. It is linked as the source of a statement by Father Alex Karloutsos on the current difficulties in rebuilding, which is fine. However, I think the copy-paste job for the rest of it is not.

The article states that the building was built in the early 19th century, but did not become a Greek Orthodox church until the early 20th century. What was the church's name(s) prior to becoming a Greek Orthodox church? What congregation(s) worshipped there? Jtyroler ( talk) 01:06, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

The article says construction was planned to be completed and the building reopen today. Did it? I found evidence that they planned to turn on the lights yesterday, but I can’t tell if they actually did, or if it’s been reopened, or if the construction is done even if it’s not open. Anyone know?

The link to see the original churches' interior has been parked. Someone please, either remove the link or find another source. 77.221.89.89 ( talk) 17:09, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
