three on thursday

the 
First Baptist Church
 has 
unequal towers 
there are also 
2 smaller towers, 
one
of which is the
 red tiled tower in the foreground of this photo  
the church was designed 
by 
George M Keister 
he also designed the Apollo Theatre in Harlem  

I've lived
 in this neighborhood 
forever 
walked 
past
 this church 
daily 
on the way 
to 
and 
from
 the subway 

 I never knew
 any 
of this
 or 
this 
other stuff 
 you can read about 

I bet it says nothing about the pigeons roosting atop and inside the unequal towers
