St. John the Divine
Revision as of 22:01, 1 April 2007 by Absentminded (talk | contribs)
St. John the Divine is one of the largest gothic cathedrals in the world...or would be, if it were ever completed. It's been under construction for 100+ years.
In December 2001, the north transept of the cathedral (you'll learn what this means in Art Hum) burned down in a fire, another reason for the perpetual scaffolding.
In November 2006 vandals lopped off the head of a George Washington statue on the Cathedral and left a one dollar bill in its place.
The grounds feature some creepy Bible-themed sculptures and are roamed by peacocks.
