Email Address: mqop@pld.com About this Exploration: Photos by Judith Creed This structure was an 8 Wonders finalist in the Architecture category. Built in 1963 by George Pitcher and Company, the church is probably the only triple-roof, lattice-type, hyperbolic paraboloid church in the world. This shape always produces a pair of hyperbolas by slicing the shell horizontally and a parabola by slicing it vertically.
