Saint Peter's Church


At the corner of Lexington and 54th street, hiding amongst all the skyscrapers is this small building pictured here. The reason I find this building interesting is that it happens to be a church. Usually all centers of organized religion are designed to impress. Their architecture reflects them being full of themselves. This building on the other hand is hiding under a Citigroup building. One would almost miss it if one was walking by, or just consider it a useless annex to the building next to it. If God wasn't dead he would be impressed. And the other lesson here is simple; pay attention to everything around you. Or as cliched as it sounds, stop and smell the roses.
