City Methodist Church 1666
Image by Michael Kappel
City Methodist Church Urban decay.
This huge gothic church was built in Gary Indiana in 1925. This decaying methodist church opened in 1926 and was closed in 1980.
Photographed by Michael Kappel on Sunday September 16th 2012 after being abandoned for 32 years.
Gary Indiana was founded in 1906 and its largest employer was US Steel.
Population declined after the decline of US Steel and large sections of the city are
abandoned. On April 28, 2009 Gary Methodist Church is featured in the episode "Outbreak" on "Life After People" as an example of what cities may look like 30 years after people.

St. Botolph's, Boston
Image by Caro Wallis
According to the Church's website, Sir Nikolaus Pevsner described St. Botolph's, in Boston, Lincolnshire, as 'a giant among English parish churches' and that 'the Stump' -
as it is more usually known - has always been a landmark to both seafarers and people travelling across the flat fenland that surrounds the market town. The Church itself, however, is anything but 'stumpy', with the nave measuring 242 feet long and the tower soaring to 272 feet high. According to Wikipedia, there are also many dimensions of the Church that correspond with dates in the calendar. The roof is supported by 12 pillars (months), the church is illuminated by 52 windows (weeks), there are 7 doors (days of the week) and there is a total of 365 steps to the top of the tower (days of the year). There are also 24 steps to the library (hours) and 60 steps to the roof (minutes and seconds).
I'm particularly happy with this photo because I had the time to be able to shoot manually. Churches are often particularly difficult buildings to capture well because of their confusing ability to have too many windows and not enough light! But, I think I've done it justice! :)
