Demolition: Our Lady of Mercy Church Rectory, 4436 North Kedzie, Chicago, IL, originally uploaded by juggernautco.
I took a set of photos of the convent of Our Lady of Mercy Church on Kedzie while it was being demolished. Here’s the wrecking/ demolition permit from EveryBlock. I kept calling this is a "rectory" (place where priests live) until I read the description on the permit record ("WRECK & REMOVE A 3 STORY BRICK BUILDING- CONVENT"). All hail EveryBlock and the Chicago Department of Buildings. It costs $72,000 to knock this thing down.
