    2/17/2022 Steeple

    The St Augustine church originally had wooden steeples atop its Gothic spires, but they weren’t replaced after they burned.

    2/17 – Church steeple

    This intersection in Mt Pleasant is pretty cool as there are 3 churches, one on each corner. You can take your pick which one to worship!

    2/17/2022 – Church Steeple

    I rode by four historic churches today, but only one had a steeple. So, here it is. This one was built in 1879. It’s still used for special events, but they built a newer and much larger church across the street that is used most of the time.

    View of National Shrine from bike lane.
    Interesting how many DC row houses have steeple-like turrets toped with spires and how many churches don’t have any steeples at all.

    2/17 – Church Steeple

    As others have mentioned, I was surprised at how challenging it was to find a church with a steeple. However, when I found it I was able to get a three-for-one shot with a LFL and a Monument bonus! This is Sydenstricker UMC in Springfield across the street from the Historic Sydenstricker schoolhouse and attendant Little Free Library.

    Found a cool cemetery too.

    What can I say…. Timeliness has never been my strong suit
