This space makes me feel good.
It's on Wylie Street in Reynoldstown and I fell in love with it in 1989. That was long before I saw inside for the first time in 2011 thanks to a WonderRoot show.
Kronberg Wall Architects, LLC is moving here. They've make it studio while keeping the sloped floor, the proscenium arch, the stained glass and alter rails. They threw a little preview party on June 28 and I got to see.
It was St. Phillips A.M.E. Church and then Beardon A.M.E. Church. It's deconsecrated now and was latest the Magnetic Theater. You could rent it for events.
I've blogged it before. I hoped my pictures weren't the last before it burned or it got torn down. See "A chance to learn more or forget less."
A video and a few pictures from the preview:
Bravo.
