Idk why everyone is getting so mad at the church here. The church is not obliged to renovate & refurbish vacant, boarded up buildings at their own expense because we think they look pretty. I like them too, but unless we’re gonna crowdfund the repairs I don’t see the point of just letting blighted building rot

they can sell them. they could partner with a developer to renovate them and rent them out. there is no reason to tear them down. these houses would be snatched up in a heartbeat if they were to sell them. they would have 20 years ago and they would be today. they church isn't required to let them fall apart, that was a choice they made, and there is still time to save the buildings if they would just sell them.
