Pentelic Marble
St. Nicholas Church, Ground Zero, New York — Pentelic Marble

Santiago Calatrava's luminous shrine, built entirely of Pentelic marble—even the windows. At night, the stone's translucent nature makes the church glow like a candle. As Calatrava said: "It's a candle, and everyone lights candles."
