Some of you may have seen pictures from MichLUG's July 2002 GATS appearance
of my church model.  The original, St. Mary's of Redford Catholic Church in
Detroit MI, was designed in the 1920s by the architect Ralph Adams Cram in a
French Romanesque style.

I have finally taken some photos of the model by itself, which are now
public at:

Excellent.  I really like the use of "useless" parts (like the bricks with
studs on sides) for decoration.  I see that you've also found a good
solution to the problem of how to build a good Lego cross---I'll see if it
scales well for my (much smaller) church.  The "rounded" bay via hinges
and a clever roof works very well, also.
