That's in a part of lower Manhattan where the buildings and infrastructure are 100 years old or more. That building dates back to the Revolutionary War. It's not as impressive as the eleventh-century chapel at Oxford, but it's the oldest we've got.

Again on the news this morning, "most of the buildings in that part of town are over 100 years old."

Almost all of the buildings in that part of the city date back to COlonial or Rev War times. McSorely's Old Ale House, which served refreshments to the Founders back when New York was the capital of the Colonies. That's one of the grat things about New York - you have Colonial history right next to Art Deco buildings and the latest hi-tech energy saving buildings all mixed together.
