    Just as well it wasnt built! Looks far too Italian. The current building is certainly a recognisable landmark, and quite unusual. Keeping the concrete clean should allow it to endure for years to come. The Anglican one is a very derivative design, its the scale that impresses.

    It's more Middle Eastern/Asian than Italian.



    Would of been nice though. Walking through the bigger anglican one is cool sometimes.

    This one would of been 200 feet bigger too so the view would of been great from it.

    I prefer what we have. The one in the visual looks like the trafford centre.
