Architectural Interests
Saint Mary’s Episcopal College for Women had a chapel constructed in 1907. The chapel was designed in the traditional shape of a cross. In 1929, the chapel was enlarged to hold the large congregation of the cathedral, changing the traditional cross configuration into a rectangle.
The central stained-glass window of Saint Mary’s Episcopal College for Women is the Nativity scene, and on each side of it are windows relating to patron saints of women. Rather than replace these windows with the cathedral’s patron Saint Matthew, a stained-glass window of Saint Matthew was installed in the south transept.

“When I develop my recipes I always look for ways to create what I call the Big Taste. While I enjoy eating simple grilled foods, what interests me when I cook are dishes with a taste that is fully dimensional.”
