Used to go to the Outdoor Stations of the Cross there on Good Friday and once reopened after Covid, the church itself is beautiful. In the old days ( a long time ago) we would go to mass there then COL Brooks tavern for brunch. COL Brooks is all gone and Brooklnd has changed some but still the best neighborhood in the city.
