Why was it demolished?

From what I was told by a parishioner, it needed more maintenance than the church could afford and nobody wanted to take it on. When I was a kid, the nuns lived there. I remember going over for a few Catechism classes and the rooms were huge and heated with big old radiators. The last resident was the caretaker of the church property.

Muley, I don’t know what they are going to do with it, but you are probably right. Behind the Cooper House lot is the school’s mobile unit [additional classroom space] and a basketball court or 2. If they made this spot a parking lot, it would open up some more “playground” space out back in the main lot.

plant some grass and a couple trees and add a couple benches would be great…..but doubt that would happen

I agree that a green space would be perfect! I’ll bet the neighbors would also agree.
