  I was born in New York City in 1945, and my baptism, first confession, and first Holy Communion were at St. Catherine of Siena Church on E. 68th. St. I also went to the St. Catherine of Siena School for kindergarten thru the third grade, which was right next store to the church, a dark red, 3 story building which has been replaced by Sloan Kettering's Zuckerman Research facility. I lived at 1303 York Ave., which has also been replaced by a medical building. My Dad went to Cornell Medical School and became a chief resident in OB/GYN at New York Hospital. I remember him mentioning a doctor by the name of R. Gordon Douglas, who was the head of what I believe was called The New York Lying Inn.
  I have visited St. Catherine's a few times since I left New York in 1954, several times when I was
  a student at Kings Point in Great Neck, Long Island, and twice as a tourist in 1989 with my wife and again in 1995 with my young son. I'll never forget St. Catherine's, I have so many fond memories of it, and I am going to try to come to New York and visit it again soon. I'm just glad it's still there, it seems like buildings disappear in New York all the time (e.g. the original Penn Station).
