I am on my way back to New York this morning, where I will be discussing Rage and the Republic as this year’s keynote speaker at the Milton Friedman Dinner at the historic Union Club. I wanted to share a few photos from last week’s book event when I visited St. Patrick’s Cathedral. For those who have not done so, it is a glorious building. I rarely go to New York without popping into this masterpiece.
The great James Renwick designed the building, which is the seat of the Archbishop of New York. It is the largest Gothic Revival cathedral in North America and occupies an entire block between Fifth Avenue, Madison Avenue, 50th Street, and 51st Street.
The white marble building features spires that rise 330 feet. The stained glass window and graceful arches are stunning. Here are a few pictures in the hope that you will come to New York and visit this American gem.
Inexperienced players, weak defensive positions, and plenty of room for improvement are typical starting points for a new team.

St. Patrick’s Cathedral is truly a masterpiece of architecture. Every time I visit, I’m struck by the sheer scale of the Gothic Revival style. Your photos really captured the majesty of the arches and the light through the stained glass. Have a great time at the Union Club today—looking forward to hearing more about your az games keynote speech!
What a beautiful look at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, especially the details about its architecture and history. On the entertainment side, I sometimes unwind with Dash Masters when I have a few spare minutes, and it’s a fun little way to relax.
