In the spring of 2000, Simon was commissioned to do the main altar Crucifix for the new Our Lady of the Angels Cathedral in Los Angeles. The piece was cast at the American Fine Arts Foundry in Burbank and was installed for the consecration of the church in September 2002. Toparovsky is currently working on garden installations in Italy and California and has recently finished a commission for a private altar crucifix. He will have a public exhibition sponsored by the City and Province of Milan (Italy) in April 2003
