Why I want to go to this place

The lyrics to Gordon Lightfoot’s song, The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald speak of the Maritime Sailor’s Cathedral.

excerpt:

In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed,
In the Maritime Sailors’ Cathedral.
The church bell chimed till it rang twenty-nine times
For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald.
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call ‘Gitche Gumee’.
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early!
