Christ Church Cathedral

I was looking for some cathedrals close to us that resemble some of the ones we studied, and I found the Christ Church Cathedral on St. Charles. It was added to and renovated a few times over the past 200 or so years. The most recent constriction of the church was in the Gothic style and incorporated pointed vaults, a prominent apse, lots of stained glass windows, a central tower, and exterior buttresses. Also, it was founded as Roman Catholic but is now part of the Episcopal diocese.

Here are some pics:

Also, please forgive how awfully the pictures are formatted.
