| Notes | This united Protestant symbol is at a world crossroad where 14 million people pass through annually and 30,000 are employed. The Chapel, of contemporary design, is in the form of the Latin Cross - the vertical portion houses the Chapel proper for worship, rest and meditation; the horizontal contains the library, Chaplain's office, reception area and nursery. Through this unique ministry, millions of world travelers, as well as airport employees, will be served. The Chapel is being built in 1962-1963 by The Protestant Council of the City of New York and will be open to the general public. Edgar Tafel, Architect.Idlewild, NYC, NY |
