The New York Institute stands tall. To the Mundanes, it just looks like a run down church that should've long been demolished. But to people with the Sight and those of the Downworld, it's a gorgeous church that stands as a reminder that the Shadowhunters, the Nephilim, are there.

You just got transferred here after the last Institute you called home got a new head. He had cast you aside for being the last of your family. Now you have to restart in a new Institute, in a new state.
