NEW YORK (FOX 5 NY) - Saint Patrick's Cathedral, the historic landmark on 5th Avenue, has been under-going a modernizing transformation. Engineers have installed a maze of new pipes so the 140-year-old building can now be heated and cooled with something called "geothermal technology".
New York, NY - Archbishop of New York Timothy Cardinal Dolan will be the principal celebrant for the Mass in honor of ST. PATRICK at St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Saturday, March 16, 2019 at 8:30 AM. The homilist will be Edward Cardinal O’Brien, ordained as a priest of the Archdiocese of New York who currently serves as Grand Master of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre, and former Archbishop of Baltimore and the Military Services.
Cardinal Dolan presided over mass as worshipers, first responders, and local leaders all packed into St. Patrick’s Cathedral for the ceremony. The mass was immediately followed by the 258th annual parade, which started at 44th Street and marched all the way up to 79th Street, where it ended at the Irish-American Historical Society.
