The Grace Cathedral in San Francisco is the third largest in the United States. In 1906, it burned as fire consumed the city in the aftermath of one of the largest earthquakes in history. The cathedral was rebuilt over time in the French-Gothic style of Paris’ Notre Dame cathedral. And the spire that rests atop the building is nearly identical to the one that fell in France on Monday.
