The La Sagrada Familia is a massive Cathedral built by Gaudi that still isn't finished. It's been over 100 years since construction began.
But my proposal for adding this wonder to the game isn't really about the wonder itself, but the building of it. I wanted to make a wonder that would cost at least 10x more production then any other wonder in the game, and could be built virtually anywhere. A wonder that, if you set a city with 100 production to build it, that city will stop bugging you every other turn to produce something... for the foreseable future.
However, Infinite production cost isn't an option...
...So what if you got every wonder building engineer you could find, along with a very high production city, and actually managed to finish this wonder? This would be a Modern/Atomic age wonder, and being a Cathedral, is of the religious variety.
Perhaps during construction, faith output is increased in the city, and it generates a small amount of religious tourism.
So what powerful thing would this wonder do when complete? I dare not dream of such a thing, for I am too taken with the idea of building it forever.
Or rather, it is not my place to ponder it's completion; but for the massive cost involved, I should leave it up to you to decide...
and yet, an idea invades my mind. The City State Yerevan and it's ability to control Apostle promotions is almost a necessity for religious victory. Without hordes of Proselytizer's, you are forced to either gift new cities to get majority religion, or capture those cities, use inquisitors, and return them when the war is over. Yerevan saves you all that trouble.
But if Yerevan isn't in the game... and it's the late game... and religious victory seems hopeless...
