New Yorkers tolerate a lot of things, but a mosque near the site of the 9/11 attacks is not one of them.

A new poll has found that 52 percent of city residents oppose the plan to erect a Muslim holy place at 45 Park Place, two blocks from Ground Zero.

Only 31 percent of New Yorkers support the mosque, while the rest are undecided, the poll found.

“Opponents suggest that the mosque would dishonor the memory of the attack’s victims,” said Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.
