It will be interesting if they get the one in Chicago (the one folks are talking about on ByzCath)

The neighborhood demographics are apparently changing. The Catholic people have moved, but moving the building is a more difficult process so its easier to sell it to the newcomers to the community.

Near here, you can see a Greek Orthodox church built as a congregational church, a baptist church built as a synagogue and a mosque built originally as a Jehovah Witness kingdom hall.
