The Church was built in 1799 on the former Caminho dos Pinheiros, today Rua da Consolação, with the help of alms from devotees to Our Lady of Consolation and with the endorsement of the diocesan bishop Mateus de Abreu Pereira were able to begin its construction, with the technique of taipa, quite common at the time. The oldest record of its construction is a document transcribed by Jacinto Ribeiro, in which it attributes the idealization of the temple to the faithful Luiz da Silva and his brothers. Located in a boggy and marshy region there is another document proving the Church's ancient existence: on November 23, 1803, an office was registered that showed the need for drinking water for the residents of the neighborhood "Nossa Senhora da Consolação". In view of the custom of baptizing the district with religious names, mainly related to sanctuaries, the Church, besides already existing, corresponded to an important piece for the functioning of the region. And, in the year 1810, a plant in the city of São Paulo contained the chapel.

Nell'assolata e rovente stazione di Corniglia, nelle famose Cinque Terre, transita isolata per conoscenza linea la E483 051 "Sasha" di GTS Rail. Sullo sfondo, l'andamento della costa sino al promontorio dove si abbarbicano le belle casupole di Manarola.

I thought I'd try a panorama with my cell phone of the hilly streets of Charlotte Amalie. I believe this photo was made up of about 9 individual photos, then stitched together in Photoshop. Wasn't sure how it would work since the street to the right is a steep hill, but all in all, I was pleased with the results. We really enjoyed our time in the city while on vacation!
