The Close

The Close at the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine

Featuring white peacocks and a statue of an angel riding an emaciated antelope riding the moon, the Close gardens surrounding the Cathedral Church of Saint John the Divine are just as messed up and beautiful as your Catholic school education. Donate your clothes at their convenient drop-box while you ask forgiveness for your weekend sins and try to imitate the grace and beauty of the peacocks.
