Old St. Patrick's Church
Posted: Thu May 21, 2009 6:02 am
I'm curious if anyone can clear up details for me about this.
The church was owned by the Catholic Diocese but was then sold to "Arbor Memorial Services" child company "Memorial Gardens Canada" under the pretense that the Diocese would removed the building.
The building has now been declared a Provincial Historical Site and a non-profit group was founded specifically to handle the restorations of the church, but the owners (Arbor Memorial) said there is too much liability involved in getting it fixed.
So now the property is just sitting there with squatters and vandals having their run of the place, and the non-profit group has dropped off the map (their site is no longer up or running, nor can I located any contact information for them).
First off, would like to verify my information is correct, as its been compiled from multiple sources.
Secondly, I am wondering who I would contact in regards to this property.
Thanks all for any help you can offer.
(and sorry, just realized that I totally posted this in the wrong forum... )
