Not really - but I can picture a 'Fiddler on the roof' of this place:

Doesn't matter, as long as there are no medieval rockets flanking it all is good.

Did you knock down two of the minarets?

That can not be St Sophia. The four minarets are at the four corners of the compass. The minarets here are at the front and there are two more at the back out of the picture. But the style is the same.

Yes, perhaps a replica of Hagia Sophia then. The Turks/Ottomans did build several on the model of the once great basilica.

Compare the two here.

St Sophia with four minarets at each corner.

Sultan Ahmet II (Blue Mosque) with six minarets.
