The whole complex looks like a modern cathedral. Maybe you can call it the New Winchester Cathedral. Do you remember the song “Winchester Cathedral”?
New Winchester Cathedral
You’re bringin’ Inchy down
You stood there and watched as
Inchy’s Virgin Internet went down (or something like that)
Frank Sinatra’s version:

New Vaudeville Band’s version:
Haha!
When I type Winchester, I start singing New Vaudeville Band’s Winchester Cathedral to myself as well.
I didn’t know Sinatra had made the song. listened to it, but still prefer the bands version. Cheers mate.
As it turns out, one of the original members of New Vaudeville was living in Albuquerque 10 or 12 years ago and was working to help homeless people. Laurie, her dad and brother heard him speak about the homeless mission and making that video of Winchester Cathedral singing through the megaphone. I don’t remember meeting him, so I was probably working. I don’t know if he’s still here or not.
I’m glad to hear that, Tim. I always thought it was not only their interpretations of songs but their personalities that were special.
They came over as decent lads.
Good for him!
Thnaks.
