I was just wondering, The buildings were in great shape, maintained, and patrolled, so what would happen if you could contact the owner (s) show them your website, tell them you would protect the location location, for permission to photograph the site?

They could see that all you were interested in were photos, not vandalizing, or looting. Just preserving history. I wonder if they would go for that, they could even have a security guard escort you to make sure nothing turned up missing.

OH, great photos!!!

The inside of the buildings may have been Disappointing, but your shots of the exterior are exceptional! All well thought out, and perfect examples of the way things use to be built, with style.
Thank you for your hard work, the photos are wonderful.

Sarah, vandalized, because they are broken, and if you look at the floor closely, you can see what looks to be a steel rod, probably the tool of choice.

I grew up in Gary back in the 50's and 60's, and can remember going to a wedding at this church. I was lucky to see it in its glory days.
