Church for sale?

Rumor has it that the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church @ 3200 East Broad Street is for sale for an amount between $1.5 and $2.5 million.
Luxury condos coming soon?
I’ve heard that Leigh Street Baptist(25th and Leigh) isn’t far behind.
>> Mt.Carmel confirmed for $1,600,000
Where did you hear about Leigh Street Baptist? I am a member there and haven’t heard that.
I heard mention from a denominational source that there had been some discussion of planning to end the church. Could be years away and my source could have been wrong… but I know they do have those types of conversations about churches in decline.
Here is a flyer advertising Mt.Carmel for sale (PDF) by Kiniry and Company.
It’ll be interesting to see how all that stained glass is incorporated into the renovations if the building becomes luxury condos. Those have a better chance of selling though, yes?
