Posting a find and a (very poor) photo. My photo was taken as a drive-by, near dusk, and it did not turn out well. I am posting it simply because when I look at it, I can remember the church, the rainy weather, the artshow that was taking place in the city streets downtown, and our visit in general.

I graduated in this church. It's been destroyed by fire... I wonder if the benchmark was on the new or old building...
