Update: This is the former Grace Lutheran Church, which became an African American congregation that has since sadly closed due to financial difficulties. Beginning with this post, readers can trace the story of the church’s sad fate of vandalism and deterioration going back in time. The church was purchased at the City tax auction in mid 2019, and was being renovated into a community arts center; however, all signs of activity ended long ago.

One of my students said she attends this church.
