Ugliest church in NY is the building that replaced the one my father knew as his boyhood parish: St John the Evangelist. It’s better known today as 1011 First Avenue, headquarters of the NY Archdiocese. It had the misfortune of sitting on prime midtown real estate.

This is the statue outside the offices of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (usccb.org). It's readily visible to people that drive northbound on 4th Street N.W. headed toward Catholic University. The locals refer to it as "Jesus hailing a cab".
