Description
This 2005 shot was taken across the street from First Baptist Church in Phoenix. The blue sky reflection on the clear glass skylight drew my attention. The church was gutted by fire in 1984, it had no roof, and was all but completely abandoned. Still protected by its placement on the National Registry of Historical Places, its fate was unclear.
But like the mythical Phoenix, this church rose from the ashes and has returned to life. In the next few years, the church will become a community space with plans for open-space performing arts, offices and restaurants in and around the largely renovated structure, now called The Monroe Street Abbey.
