New Yorkers, numbed by constant grandeur, too often pass architectural gems without noticing. But buildings such as this one deserve attention. It is a Roman Catholic church built in the early Romanesque style in the 1930s by John Van Pelt, and modeled after the Clunic Abbey of Saint Peter in Moissac (France). There is a lavish sculpture, an ornate portal, and a vivid story in stone of the life of Christ.
