crumbling building into a pile of bricks

Demo

Demo. As in demolition. The decline in popularity of the R.C. church can be measured in the number of churches facing the wrecking ball in Windsor. It’s too bad that communities cannot adopt these buildings as neighbourhood centres. This one was at the corner of Grand Marais and Dominion. A park with trees and benches welcoming to all would be a nice replacement.

    Indeed! But my gut instinct is that we’ll get another Rexall instead. :(
