How to build a cathedral, part 1

Cathedral of Christ the Light March 2006

The Cathedral of Christ the Light is being constructed right beside where I work in Oakland. Above you can see the crypt being built in March 2006.

The above picture shows what will be the ground floor as of April 2006. Below, in February 2007, the basic concrete structure is complete (I think). Above this there will be a soaring wood and glass top part. Next time we'll see why they are building that scaffolding in the middle.
