St. Patrick's Cathedral

Elizabeth, NJ is my American hometown. Although I was born and raised in Portugal, when I came to the US, this is where I first arrived - after JFK International - in 1974 and where I lived for several years. So it feels like home. This landmark Cathedral is on 2nd St. in the Elizabethport area.

    Beautiful Cathedral! Love the trees surrounding the painting and the shadows against the building. This piece is an outstanding work of art.

    Wow - I went to 12 years of school there! It's a magnificent painting! If you were a parishioner there in the 70's we may know each other.

  6. Bill, thanks so much for your comment. Personally, I am getting ready to move back to the Northeast and I am very excited that I am going to be closer to Elizabeth.
