Synod Of Bishops Russian Orthodox Church

The Pros: unlike another russian orthodox church on 97^th and Madison, this IS open pretty much always. There are also a second floor with the gift shop, an event room, another atrium (those latter are not always open) and restrooms in the lobby.
The Cons: although the main floor atrium is set up to look properly — it’s not a dome building, as russian churches are supposed to be, so the feel of authenticity is quite compromised. It also has regular windows overlooking the street traffic, getting all its noise — another thing that takes away from the experience.
However, may be worth getting a glimpse.
