The Advent Church of Charleston (a/k/a Holy Trinity Church), 272 St. Philip Street, ca. 1963. There’s no history of this church in HCF’s Archives. All that’s known is that it was demolished for the construction of the Crosstown. Any additional information you can share about this building will be appreciated! See this photo and many others showing the buildings lost or otherwise impacted by the construction of the Crosstown and other roads on the Lowcountry Digital Library.
