The ladies with boquets...goregous photo.



Here's a wide angle of the inside of Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church. This is great place, it was built in 1860 as a "temple of abolition." The first pastor, Theodore Cuyler was the founder of the National Temperance Society. Apparently (according to the pastor), Abe sent his kid, Robert Todd up here to break the ground for the what is now the modern church. (I guess Abe used to use his boy for P.R. appearances. Someone correct me if that is wrong.) Early drafts of the emancipation proclamation were worked on in the library here. The current pastor is Rev. David Dyson, a former ACTWU staffer and decorated social justice warrior.
