    Very Spanish looking. I've noticed that most new Catholic churches in the US are being built to serve the growing Hispanic population.

    One cannot discuss the merits of a Cathedral, without focusing in on the types of gargoyles being recruited.
    Seriously, it does look to be an excellent building, and should prove a major boost to the local economy.

    You would be very surprised. There are lots of non Hispanic Catholic Families in the States with very large families. All my friends over there have 5+ kids, Facebook is constantly filled with scan photos, family shots of #4 or #6.... I can't keep up. It is the largest single Church in the US.
