Church on Freeman and Findlay

Another church that has recently been adopted through OTR ADOPT is first German Reform Church on Freeman Avenue.  The church was adopted by a group, who have plans to convert it into a restaurant and music venue. Nathaniel Hammitt, a UC student with an interest in Over-the-Rhine, meet the owners and offered to help them with measuring the church out.  I had introduced him to our project, so he took me to the church and we walked around the church.  This church is in much better condition then our church.  It was interesting to see how different each church is, which make reuse a struggle.  If you are interested in participating in helping with the church Sunday, February 13 · 1:00pm - 5:00pm they are asking people to help clean it out. There is a facebook group (http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=138570759540552)  if you are interested or contact us for more information.  I know for sure I will be there and some other Atelier members might join as well.
