Father Pitt

Why should the beautiful die?


Old Church Turned into Alley Houses, South Side

Update: For the history of the church, see “The Mystery of the Converted Church on the South Side.”

Father Pitt knows nothing of the history of this building at 23rd Street and Larkins Way other than what is written in the bricks. It appears to be an old church, probably dating from the earliest development of East Birmingham, that was later converted into four tiny houses facing Larkins Way. To judge by the style, the conversion is not recent. And that is about as much as Father Pitt can read in the bricks, so any more information or corrections would be much appreciated.

Camera: Canon PowerShot S45.

  1. Nothing more to add other than it was an excellent re-purposing of a building very nicely done. Holy admirable. (Excuse the pun).
