-Wren was started to design the new version of [[St. Paul's Cathedral]] in 1666, which was approved for construction later that year. He spent the next 36 years of his life building the cathedral to it's completion in 1711. The cathedral had gone through multiple redesigns, Wren fought with both the clergy and his critics about the design; the clergy found it to similar to Roman Catholic cathedral designs and therefore it went against the political and religious views of England. Wren modified his designs to appease the clergy but left some of the areas subject to change, getting his way with a more baroque style cathedral as the end result.
