https://johndcramer.wordpress.com/2012/08/22/mercy-hospital-chicago
Mercy Hospital 1968: A Prescription for Reinvestment on Chicago’s Near South Side. Mercy Hospital’s west facade. Photo by author. It was a fiery stroke of bad luck, and on Friday the 13. Too, that really gave wings to the campaign to build a new Chicago Mercy Hospital. New Mercy goes up, Old Mercy comes down – mid 1960s. Photo from Mercy Hospital. On Friday, September 13. 1963, a blaze broke out on the top floor of the east wing of Chicago’s old Mercy Hospital at 26. The tower’s two-story podium houses t...

Back to the Future with Louisiana Architect A. Hays Town. Over this past December, I had a chance to take a look at two works by the late Louisiana architect A. Hays Town (1903-2005) in my hometown of Lafayette, Louisiana. Lafayette Oil Center (A. Hays Town, 1952). Photo by author. But in the 1960s, A. Hays Town appears to have switched course. Instead of holding firm to Modernist ideals, he began to look back at the traditional architecture of his home state for inspiration. Town’s wor...I’ve take...

Modern Church Architecture Minnesota-Style. North facade of St. John's Abbey. Photo by John Cramer. I recently got the chance to visit the Twin Cities again and made the hour-and-a-half trek to the rural community of Collegeville, MN. From Interstate 94, visitors can see the hilltop that has been home for the last one-hundred-and-fifty years to St. John’s Abbey. The sanctuary of St. John's Abbey. Photo by John Cramer.

A Modern Cloister in Chicago’s Hyde Park. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s chapel at Chicago’s Illinois Institute of Technology, built 1952. Photo from World Architecture Map. Since World War II, American architects, designers, and worshippers have debated: how religious does a religious building really need to look? Does a sacred space need to visually declare itself as sacred? For a church to look like a simple “God box”? In 1968, Architectural Record. The construction of the Lutheran School of Theology didn...

By John D Crane. Sometimes we find ourselves in roles that aren’t a good fit because we felt pressured into taking a job any job!

A reminder to myself on abiding. Ldquo;There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.”. 1 John 4:18 NKJV. I’m going to be vulnerable here. I have a deep desire to pursue God with everything in me, but there’s been fear that’s crept in with it. I would often wonder if I was missing something or could be doing things better. Am I in the Word enough? The Old Testament also says that our best works are like filthy ...
