I think its a shame that the tower collpased last night. I'm going to guess the heavy rains and a lack of proper maintenance were the cause.Well, given the accounts Al's given us, about another church which couldn't afford the repairs mandated by the PHC, it's difficult to see this as a mandate for the HD proposal. One could argue, with equal force and evidence, that the owners would be facing repairs of an extremely (and prohibitively) expensive nature.
How many other historic buildings are going to fall before we really invest in historic preservation?
The fact is this is a huge loss for the beauty of the neighborhood. I'm glad no one was hurt... and I hope it can be rebuilt.
