The chapel was designed in the late ’50s by Walter Netsch, then a 34-year-old architect with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill; construction started in 1959, and it opened in 1962. The 150-foot-high aluminum, steel and glass structure earned raves from the start for its streamlined design that includes seventeen spires that look like jets streaming to the sky. It was named a National Historic Landmark in 2004.
