Calvary Church being demolished

Post by jammer_smith »

The Calvary Church on Grand and Campbell has been empty for a while and I guess it's about to be demolished. A contractor trailer and some other equipment has been set up in the parking lot. What do you want to be in a year that'll be student housing?

Anyway, I went and checked it out yesterday, it's super easy to get into. That was a pretty big and swanky operation at it's height. It looks like it was built in 89, so it didn't last long. Wonder what the story is.

I do not know, maybe, it's a fairly good sized lot.
