Henry McGill's 1932 Church of the Most Precious Blood, in Queens, has  a 
spectacular array of aluminum ornament, including a huge pierced screen around 
 the octagonal tower.    I note in the literature just a few other  
buildings in NYC with aluminum: an aluminum flagpole base and some spandrel  panels 
on the Chrysler Building. 
 
Any other uses of aluminum in Manhattan come to mind, in the  1920-1940 
period?
