Several weeks ago, a fellow modeler send me a referral that was posted on eBay. I have this building from 1992, but I have been looking for a price to create a one structure Vignette Display for a December Christmas Contest run on another D56 related site. Those who know me know I love contests and I go into them to win. Who-la, This building was just what I needed to get started. I searched eBay for a couple of weeks for this building as I was not going to remove my original from my CIC layout. Fortunately, I found it, in perfect condition, and at a great price. It is a highly sort after Church. It is more than that, it is a very close match to the Church I was brought up in. For me. It is more than special. Anyway, St. Mark's Cathedral serves as the Centerpiece for this year's December Vignette Scene. I am not done with it yet, just waiting for some last minute supplies. But here is a quick look at this Church.

Best of luck Brian! Based on the looks of that scene I’d say you have a good chance.

There is a lot more to this Vignette than I have shown in this photo. Next photo is when I have finished it.

The contest was just a motivational factor for me. Building is where all the fun is.
I out a lot into this one in terms of creativity. I also found some wonderful accessories to go with my build. This is the best Church I have included and Church scene that I have created in a display so far.
Don't forget that wonderful Cross that I used in the front of this Cathedral. Fits with any Christian Church.

Very nice Brian. I've been thinking about adding a church to the layout, but I have to move some buildings around.
