Repurposing of an Old Church: flooring, Interiors and Wooden Church Chairs Retained

"Calvary Baptist – an almost century old church that housed crumbling ceilings, walls, and wooden church chairs, is getting re-purposed into a law firm after it was bought by Dan Davis, owner of a prestigious law firm. This sparked a mixed reaction to the public as the edifice is known for its historic heritage such as the gathering of 1,500 people to listen to the speech of Martin Luther King, Jr. Thankfully, the new owner of the property is keen in retaining the original benches, podium, and stage, intact. The industrious project includes keeping the wood flooring, restoring the stained glass windows, wooden church chairs, and recreating the balconies and sanctuary."
