Future church towers rise above commerce in New York
A visionary plan imagines a sky scraper temple complex in Manhattan with 23 stories of church, stores, offices, apartments and pools. Clergy would live on ground level while a church sits atop a 100-story building. A prior note recalls Mrs. Stetson’s Christian Science church fence above a drug store and the idea of “Science above drugs,” as cities once crowned tall structures. The piece also mentions a Frenchman planning snake handling ventures in India and Switzerland, ending with biblical warnings and a page cutoff.
