Long Description:
Despite appearances, this is not the Houston Astrodome. The Church of the Ascension is a decidedly non-traditional structure, with a periphery of offices and confessionals surrounding a large central congregation area. Ironically, the church has built two secondary structures, both of which are perfectly hexagonal.
