The Natural History museum in London has all the qualities of a cathedral, particularly the facade and the main atrium.
Also the national mall in Washington DC.
Would you include grand city parks? They are perhaps the garden rooms of cities.
The idea of Wikipedia being a cathedral is an interesting one, if we include virtual space then for me social networks qualify, but certainly lack the longevity of your physical examples, which perhaps is a metaphor in itself.
