Ten years ago, on February 28, 2004, UUCCSM purchased the lot next door, 1248 18th Street, after it was unexpectedly listed by a local real estate agent. The church had been inquiring about the property since the 1960s as a logical site for future expansion. On Sunday, March 21, 2004, the congregation was invited to walk through the 1914 (est.) cottage that had been a rental property for decades.
