Welcome to Broadway-Fillmore Alive! Our mission is to work together with community
groups, businesses, residents, churches and other organizations to help
promote, preserve and revitalize the Broadway-Fillmore area.
A few months ago, I posted a piece called “Demolishing Polonia: It is only a matter of time” about the Lumen Bearing Co. complex on Sycamore and Lathrop. Well, its time has come to be demolished.
As the photos illustrate, everything is in place for the demo to begin.
It is sad. With a little TLC, the place could have survived time and the wrecking ball. But after years of neglect, it will go the way like a lot places in the neighborhood.
Father Roy Herberger reads Bishop Kmiec’s letter to the Parishioners announcing Saint Ann’s closing. The video also includes Father Herberger’s comments on the suspension of activities at the church.
