WASHINGTON — A historic downtown Washington church that more closely resembles a concrete bunker than a house of worship can be demolished because the structure’s upkeep is so expensive it would eventually bankrupt the congregation, a city official has ruled.
Members of the Third Church of Christ, Scientist, just a few blocks from the White House, have spent months in federal court fighting for a permit to raze the boxy modernist church. Preservationists say the church should remain intact.
