I think that I was the last baby to be baptized there on 12/31/41. It saddens me to see such architecture being torn down. Why does Europe have such beautiful buildings and here we tear down everything?

These shots are awesome. The lighting is absolutely haunting.

It makes me so sad that a congregation could just walk away from a church as beautiful as this one, that it could just be left to the ages to destroy it at will seems godless to me.

There must be a way to save this piece of history, this monument of religious art of the era. If we continue to demolish everything old we will destroy our history.

Kind-of makes you wonder what would possess anyone to abandon such a gorgeous building.

Amazing to see these pictures, this church was a big deal for the people that surrounded it. My brother and I went to school there. A lot of memories. These pictures are amazing.
