Of course it had to be closed! Not fit for purpose. It can't be used as a multi-functional worship area, gay and lesbian outreach centre or oecumenical gathering space. The focus on the sanctuary and the central tabernacle are distractions, and there's nowhere to have coffee. A sense of the transcendance of God? Not in the spirit of Vatican II old boy, too vertical. Private prayer did you say? Oh, you can do that at home, the church is locked during the day, anyway.
And we've got to hurry with closing these old-style churches - the old boy in Rome might try to put his oar in.
