Yeah iirc his studio burned down at the hands of anarchist vandalists.
Building some great indulgent monument to god wasn't exactly uncontroversial in the political climate at the time, as I understand it.
Anyway, his plans wouldn't have been detailed enough to just go and build it. There was a lot of interpretation to be done in any case.
