New Yorkers of all faiths adore the glorious Cathedral of St. John the Divine because of its joyous and welcoming spirituality. The world's largest Gothic Cathedral, this mammoth and beautiful structure is one of the finest examples of American stone work. Construction on the unfinished neo-gothic building began in 1892 and is expected to continue for decades to come. Inside features include a massive pipe organ, numerous stained glass windows and altars created by famous artists. A poet's corner (modeled after the one in Westminster Abbey) pays tribute to great figures of American literature.
