On Saturday let's sketch what might be NYC's most impressive church.
In a city of skyscrapers, the Cathedral impresses with sheer size. Its detailed facade towers over Amsterdam Avenue, and the building extends a full avenue block to Morningside Drive.
The Cathedral is more than 120 years old, and remains unfinished. Despite incomplete construction, it is the largest cathedral in the world, making it a global landmark. Incredible to consider, the Statue of Liberty could fit under the church's dome.
