Sunset shining on Old Drish - In December, the Southside Baptist Church addition was torn down and hauled away. This is the first step in restoring the Drish House.
In January, a TIME CAPSULE, originally buried by the church members in the 1950s was excavated and opened.

very nice! i love the orange color that the buildings get when touched by sunset light.
I like the building. What was in the time capsule?
I must say that it does look better without the additions. If those beautiful columns are any indication, this house is going to look great when the restoration's done! I hope you'll keep us updated on the project.
i like the old non renovated church, but thank God it's saved!
Great building! So glad to see it's under renovation.
Definitely needs some paint. Can't wait to see the restoration completed.
Looks like it's going to be grand!
Thanks everyone for the comments. Sorry I'm so late in responding.
Patty- glad you dropped by. The building is a light pink color, so the sunset just enhanced that nicely.
bfarr - If I remember correctly there were some church documents, programs and things about membership.
Hilda - Thanks! I plan to update the blog with the reno. progress.
KenMac - Amen, Brother! :)
Rambling Round - me too!
gogouci - Paint and THOUSANDS of dollars of other repairs!
Halcyon - it will be, can't wait!
I'm happy to hear that it's being saved and restored! Tuscaloosa is good about saving its historic buildings.
