The borough consists mostly of Manhattan Island, bounded by the Hudson, East, and Harlem rivers; several small adjacent islands; and Marble Hill, a small neighborhood now on the U.S. mainland, physically connected to the Bronx and separated from the rest of Manhattan by the Harlem River.
Herbert E. Matz Herbert E. Matz, AIA, was a minor American architect practicing in New York City in the mid twentieth century. His best and only known work is Christ Lutheran Church (New York City) (1948). Matz's design for the new church included Gothic Revival details.
