Cathedral of Christ the Light

Located in downtown Oakland, this new cathedral of the Oakland Diocese replaced the original one damaged by the 1989 earthquake. It is designed by Craig Hartman and completed in 2008.
Constructed on an isolated concrete base for earthquake resistance, the 136 ft tall sanctuary features a inner wood vessel within a veil of glass to provide a luminous interior.
