New York Cathedral Restoration

New York’s Episcopal Cathedral had its rededication service yesterday [Articles from the New York Times and Episcopal Life Online]. The Cathedral of St. John the Divine is a quick walk from Columbia’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, and has quite the fascinating architectural history. I visited it a few weeks ago, and despite the large partitions in place for the construction work, it was an impressive space.
