St. Ann and Holy Trinity Church

The church is located in Brooklyn Heights. Went on a walking tour of Brooklyn Heights that was fun and informative. Homer Fink ( the tour-name of our guide ). Brooklyn Heights has been the home for such writers as Arthur Miller and Truman Capote as well as many other historical figures over the years. Very picturesque neighborhood in Brooklyn. This church has no steeple. Apparently, in the past, it was in need of repairing or replacing and it was decided to just take it down and not replace.

Another Church

From the rooftop of the Pemco parking garage on Eastlake Ave. another church comes into view. The cream colored building with the curved roofline used to be the Seattle School District‘s warehouse. Years ago I worked in this building for about 3 weeks one summer as I was going through a rather extended time between jobs. I worked swing shift with one other employee, who I rarely saw until the end of the shift, around 11:30pm each night.

Orthodox

I think this is a Russian Orthodox Church, but could be Greek.

More St. Andrews

The face on this angel or whatever looks like it was modeled after someone’s uncle. Kind of odd.

Many people have covered this church, across the street from Ground Zero. The church’s identity now seems connected, forever, to the events of Sept. 11, 2001. There is not much I can say other than walking the grounds and in the church can be a very moving, odd feeling.

Note: for those who know me, in the foreground with their backs to the camera are the ‘twins’ ( Lily and Ian, my companions for the day and more ).
