Saint Peter's Church/Our Lady of the Rosary is a Catholic church in the Financial District of Manhattan, New York City. The current building was constructed from 1836 to 1840 and was designed by John R. Haggerty and Thomas Thomas in the Greek Revival style, with six Ionic columns.^[2] The church opened February 25, 1838 with Archbishop John Hughes officiating.^[3]

The parish, part of the Archdiocese of New York, is the oldest Catholic parish in New York State, and the building replaced an earlier one built in 1785–86.^[4] The original church was used for worship until 1834 when it was replaced by the present structure.

The church was designated a New York City landmark in 1965^[5] and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The present church has been declared a landmark by federal, state and city agencies.
