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?
