100 storefront churches in Brooklyn

Posted December 20th, 2007 @ 3:27 pm by Andy Rau

An ambitious photographer has taken photos of 100 storefront churches in Brooklyn. Lots of really striking images. The seeming disconnect between the battered, humble storefronts and the victorious language on the church signs creates a sense of sacred space that can be felt even through the photos. Here are some of my favorites—what about you?

The photographer talks about the background of this photography project at his blog.
