photo by: Mike Yoder/Journal World Photo Restoration work began again Monday on the St. Luke African Methodist Episcopal Church, 900 New York, as part of a historic preservation project. A crew from The GKW Group - masonry restoration specialists from Kansas City, Mo., was working on the exterior brick walls and chimneys on the south and east sides. Additional restoration work is underway on the brick masonry of a historic Black church in East Lawrence thanks to a generous response to fundraising efforts. The Rev. Verdell Taylor, of St. Luke African Methodist Episcopal Church, said workers are now tuck-pointing the brick veneer on the east and south sides of the church built in 1910 and anchoring the brick veneer where it has pulled away from the underlying wood frame. Several fundraising sources made the work possible on the church, 900 New York St., which is on state and national registers of historic places.
