Behold, the Neo-Gothic Website


And just to show I play fair, here's some Gothic subversion to spare, if the foray into classical frisbees was too far outside your comfort zone: a gorgeous and very official architectural tour of the finest church in America east of the Mississippi, Goodhue's marvelous St. Vincent Ferrer in New York City.

The finest church west of the Mississippi, barring St. Louis Cathedral, is another St. Vincent's, the exuberant neo-Baroque St. Vincent de Paul, Los Angeles, with interior furnishings by Goodhue's sometime partner R.A. Cram, in yet another nice bit of symmetry.
