Demolition of St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church, Somerset County

The company’s actions could be considered anticipatory demolition—when an applicant destroys or harms a historic property to avoid Section 106 review.

"The architect for the future facility indicates that stones from the church’s foundation will be incorporated in a monument wall outside of the new building, as a tribute to former parishioners and the historic preservation community."

Thanks a lot, chum. I think they would prefer their Church to be still standing.
