Let's hope it would be too expensive to remodel.

There is a wonderful big church similar to this in South Central Los Angeles, built by the Doheneys of oil fame.
St. Vincent de Paul's faces a main intersection and it's oriented at 45 degrees so traffic in the street sees its facade directly.
The original design anticipated that it would become the L.A. cathedral, but that never happened.
Same thing was planned for St. Basil's on Wilshire Blvd near Vermont, but Roger Mahony intervened and chose St. Vibiana's.
Today, St. Vincent's and St. Basil's are still Catholic parish churches but St. Vibiana's is converted into a banquet hall.
.
St. Vincent's is not gothic, but more like baroque or Spanish renaissance style.
It has carpentry details that are reminiscent of Spanish galleons of the 16th century.
There are curved top relief carved doors 18" thick going from the sanctuary to the side hallways.
The strike edge of the doors have built in bevel arcs that maintain a 3/32" margin over their entire 18" path.
To build and hang such a door today would easily cost $5,000 to $8,000.
The Novus Ordo liturgy is the only kind used but they've left the main high altar intact.
The Newchurch "table" out near the congregation could be picked up and moved in 5 minutes.
