    Strike up a conversation with any of the 3 sextons of the church (you might know them as custodians). They're full of information & stories & are delightful people devoted to their work & this church.

    Take a look at the brass plate on pew 54 which indicates the president's pew. Since its inception, every chief executive has worshiped in this "Church of Presidents" while in office. - Green Guide Edi

    The windows were largely made in Chartres, France. Look on the right side for one donated by president Arthur in memory of his wife.

    St. John's has been attended by almost every US President. "The President's Pew" is reserved for this neighbor from across the street.
