Description

3 1/2"h x 4 1/2"w photocopy of a photo of the concrete block version of Saint Nicholas church with the frame version, now the parish hall, in the background. The newer church had a gable roof and a taller bell tower on the right. The gable roof over the main building had a couple of feet of overhang. The roof of the bell tower was not visible, but was probably pyramid style. There were openings on all four sides at the top of tower with louvers over the openings. There were no visible windows on the next lower level, but there was a two light casement window on the next level. The lowest level had no openings. The church had a rose window over the door, but it was not very high up in the gable end. There were two single light casement windows on either side of the vestibule roof. There were small single light windows on each side of the vestibule. The vestibule was probably four or five feet deep with a gable roof over the space. Another roof projected over the front of the door, presumably to protect worshipers entering or leaving the church. There was a double wooden door with no fenestration three steps above the ground. There were small openings, either windows or ventilation spaces at and below ground level on the tower and to the right of the church steps. The parish hall in the background was a gable roof building. On the gable end were two fifteen light windows for the second floor and a double door on the first floor. A very slightly hipped roof five bay porch protected the door. The porch floor was three steps above the ground. ********************************** Text on verso:
