It was being developed into a Community Center and senior apartments by a church group. Parishioners say it was dedicated to the neighborhood. When many churches and pastors could have left this community, this church decided to stay and really reinvest in this community. So its really disheartening to see the commitment to justice be distracted and for this devastation to happen.
