The spire of this man's "warrant" design for one building was superseded by a three-layer dome with a central brick cone. After Westminster Abbey rejected Bertel Thorvaldsen's statue of Byron for Poets' Corner, it ended up in a library designed by this man. Seen from Nevile's Court, that library's floor seems to extend below the arches supporting it. This man's work at Cambridge includes his first-ever commission, [*] Pembroke College's chapel, and Trinity College's library, which bears his name. Seekers of this man's memorial are told to look around themselves. With Robert Hooke, this man designed The Monument, a 202-foot column memorializing the event that cleared the way for much of his work. This man rebuilt a church with a "Whispering Gallery" after the Great Fire of 1666. For 10 points, name this English architect of St. Paul's Cathedral.
