In the Boston area, more than a dozen churches have been converted to residential projects over the past decade or so. That's in part because there has been a steady supply. The Archdiocese of Boston closed 76 parishes in the metro area under a 2004 consolidation plan, selling 38 of those for just over $73 million. (To signify that a church is no longer a church, the archbishop signs a decree that relegates the building to 'profane use.')
在波士顿地区,在过去10年左右的时间内,有十几座教堂被改建成了住宅项目。这在一定程度上是因为可供改建的教堂数量充足。根据2004年的一项合并计划,波士顿大主教管区(Archdiocese of Boston)关闭了波士顿地区的76个教区,并以超过7,300万美元一点点的价格出售了其中38座教堂。(为了表明一座教堂不再作为教堂使用,大主教需要签署一项法令,允许这座教堂改作世俗用途)。
One of the churches closed was a Tudor-style church called St. Aidan's in Brookline, Mass., where John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy were both baptized. It reopened in 2009 as a residential project. The church's stone facade and slate roof were preserved, but the interior walls were reframed to support two additional floors. The church was converted into nine high-end condo units that each sold for between $1 million and $1.8 million.
其中一座被关闭的教堂位于马萨诸塞州布鲁克兰(Brookline),名为圣艾丹堂(St. Aidan's),是一座都铎风格的教堂。约翰·F.肯尼迪(John F. Kennedy)和罗伯特·肯尼迪(Robert Kennedy)都曾在这所教堂接受洗礼。这座教堂在2009年被改造成了一个住宅项目。教堂的石材外立面和石板屋顶被保留,但其内部 壁经过重新构造以支撑新增两层楼的重量,最终被改建为九套高端共管公寓,每套售价在100万美元至180万美元之间。
