Family Activities on West 120th Street, Today

All Saints > Capital Prep

Last winter I snapped a picture of the Gothic script that made the 130th Street entrance to the former All Saints Elementary School #52 so charming. The gilt letters, hidden behind a protective mesh still glowed.

This week I noticed that Capital Prep – the charter school that will occupy both the former Catholic All Saints school, as well as the former church itself, had not only replaced the text, but faithfully put their name in equally impressive gilt Gothic font.

A wonderful detail showing that someone truly cared.
