The cathedral Basilica of St. James was built in 1903 and is located at the corner of Jay Street and Cathedral Place in downtown Brooklyn, New York. The building has a deep red color with a tower sitting on-top that is painted in white with gold accents around the panels. On the front of the tower, there is a figure of someone holding a stick or pole. The enormous doors of the church are brown in color and have a floral design above the one of the main entrance. The dark rectangular windows are highlighted with white paints around each frame and brings a little life to the building. Four persons can be seen walking past the church where on the road vehicles are going about. There’s a sign in-front of the church and one on the side of the street which reads, ‘police line do not cross’. To the side of the church is a small tree without leaves and a tall building peeping behind it. I chose this photo because it’s historic and i like the color.
