Next Sunday is Second Sunday in Broadway-Fillmore.
On February 12th, we will be featuring the book launch of Adorned in Light: The Stained Glass of Corpus Christi Church as part of Second Sundays in Broadway-Fillmore.
I heart 703 Fillmore. It is on Fillmore just south of Broadway. Long before being the First Holy Temple Full Gospel Baptist Church, it was the Masiel Furniture store built in 1925.
In the pictures above, you can see some of the detail…look at the old awning framework and some of the awning still left.
I am glad the building is in use.
It is another little rough around the edges gem of a building in B-F.

Description:
Eddie Zawadzki will be giving a book talk on Poles in the New World followed by a book signing. Partial proceeds from the book signing are going to the library, so stop by and pick up a copy.
Author Edward Zawadzki will be signing his book “Poles in the New World” at the Broadway Market on 01/21/2012 from 11am to 2pm as part of Polka, Piwo, & Pierogi event at the market.
From the author’s website…
“The Poles in the New World” has from the start been a project from my heart and to see it keep growing in popularity has made me so proud! I’m getting new bookings almost daily to visit so many strong regions of Polonia right across North America. This book highlights the lives of 50 Poles of distinction and their great contributions to North American society. From Pulaski, Brzezinski to Martha Stewart and Steve Wozniak, Poles have given so much of themselves to the building of our North American society.
