St. Lucy, the Much Beleaguered

The view from the top of the Home Depot is very nice, except for the tall safety fence.

 

St. Lucy was a community anchor, until the community disappeared. Most bulldozed to expand approaches to the Holland Tunnel and the rest in the name of urban renewal that didn't work.

 

The area just west of the church is becoming a uber sleek new residential enclave so I guess it is just a matter of time and eccnomics before the church is sold for developement. flic.kr/p/dWPKBJ
