It would have been better IMHO had they taken the Stained Glass windows out of the exterior and incorported them into the interior facade rather than use the frosted glass.

Imagine the “light show” at night as people's homes light up their respective windows.

Disco!

Then they could just use clear glass on the exterior. Paned of course…as giant “modern” sheets of glass would look stupid from the outside.

On a different note…there are probably a whole bunch of PO'd Christian Scientists around the world right now. Ya think?
