The architecture

Is fairly functional. It was built as the chancery office for Old St. Patrick's Cathedral on the other side of the graveyard.

Indeed, Archimandrite Serge of Dublin claims he has the oldest family connection to St. Michael's because the business address on the deed to the family plot in Queens is that of the old chancery.

We did have some folks keeping the place open for the festival, and even a card table where you could by icons -- of the last Tsar and his wife!
