OMAHA — A North Omaha landmark, built more than a century ago, is part of a national wave of religious buildings that will share $4 million awarded last week under a program to protect the legacy of America’s Black churches.
The former Calvin Memorial Presbyterian Church, 3105 N. 24th St., is to benefit from a $100,000 planning grant aimed at helping to transform the vacant church with a distinctive dome and white columns into a community center.
