St. Patrick's Cathedral

 

The Cathedral of Saint Patrick, in New York City, is located on Fifth Avenue, between 50th and 51st streets. It was designed by James Renwick Jr., who also designed the Grace Church, consecrated in 1846. The construction of the neo-Gothic temple started in 1858 and it was dedicated on May 25, 1879. The spires were added in 1888 and the temple became the tallest structure in New York City (100.4 meters / 329.6 feet) at the time.
