This was the scene on Monday morning, October 27 at the Ogden Baptist Church on Washington Street.
A crane waits for demolition of the south side of the second section of the roof so it can remove the panels. Replacement plywood-covered trusses for the back 75 percent of the roof are on the ground at this point.
A crane lowers the huge middle truss of the Ogden Baptist Church roof to the ground. Three quarters of the roof was replaced; the front quarter, supporting the steeple, was renovated in the recent past.
The approximately $180,000 project will provide new covering for a building which was constructed in 1833.
