The following are some of my favorite moments encapsulating three things I am passionate about: art, architecture, and history. It all looks different in the light. Thank you Angel for making this possible.

Originally constructed as an apartment complex in 1905, and now serves as a Baptist church with an apartment building next door. Some windows are boarded from the inside, and the stoop paint is chipping. But the cornices and window pediments show the beauty of the Romanesque style that has survived. The early evening light gives it new life.
