Naval Academy chapel get resounding praise

Published in today’s BS:



The sanctuary of the U.S. Naval Academy’s new Jewish chapel almost commands an awakening of the human spirit. The roof looks as if it has separated and opened to the heavens. Windows above the balcony bathe the pews in natural light. A tapered aisle creates the illusion of steps leading to the altar.



The $10 million for the chpael works out to $25,000 per seat! It must be a Taj Mahal.
