Free Market Religion in Chicago in Action

As we start reading about religion in Chicago, it would be a crime for me not to mention this interesting swap that occurred recently involving a church, a train station, the long-entrenched Presbyterians, and the upstart Buddhists in my neighborhood, Old Norwood Park.

Here is a link to the Presbyterian Church circa 2006:

And here is their church today:

I don't know the legal specifics of how it happened or why (although I have theories), but that stereotypical red brick church with the white steeple now houses a Buddhist meditation center while the Presbyterians have moved to our derelict rail depot. It should be noted that while Union Pacific no longer uses the station house, the platforms are still served by about two commuter trains an hour on weekdays. Any curious commuter who peaks in might stumble upon a Presbyterian service! Likewise, I imagine someone looking for a more Brittanic take on Christianity might be surprised to find Eastern practitioners in a colonial-style red brick church!
