Remembering what St. Brigid's looks like

Seems like forever since we last saw St. Brigid's on Avenue B at Eighth Street with the scaffolding and sidewalk shed, etc.... Here's a shot (via) from 2000 or so...



And from the NYPL digital archives... a view of the church in 1928...



...and 1935...



Photos from NYPL. 1928-35

Seeing the older photos of the citizens walking around the building makes me more than a little sad as I think about my own mortality. Most of those people in the photos are long gone as I will be too in due time. Just have to enjoy my brief time on this planet as much as I can!
