There are several churches in the area that have been turned into housing, restaurants, of concert venues in the city and the area. Don’t know about the cost, but it’s definitely doable. There’s a lot of space to work with

I just hope it gets used for something good. There are so many beautiful church buildings in the city, and many of them don’t have historical status yet, so I’m afraid they’ll be left to rot and turned into a parking lot or something. St George in Allentown and St Canice in Knoxville are good examples of beautiful buildings that have been sitting there. I’ve been hoping St Canice and the old Catholic school across from it could be turned into apartments and community space for years.
