Grand Street (Manhattan)

It runs west/east parallel to and south of Delancey Street, from SoHo through Chinatown, Little Italy, the Bowery, and the Lower East Side.

The hill was later leveled and some of the field stone used for the construction of St. Augustine's Church on Henry Street.

[3] Bayard Mount at the site of present-day Grand and Mott Streets was the tallest hill in lower Manhattan, and overlooked the Collect Pond.

[6] The church itself was built in 1832–33, and its facade replaced in 1871 by the noted architect Patrick Charles Keely.

The original portion is the second-oldest Roman Catholic structure in the city, after St. Patrick's Old Cathedral, which was built in 1815.
