MYSTERY PHOTO: Classic lines distinguish this architectural gem

Today’s Mystery photo is a building with strong classic lines. See if you can determine what and where this is. Send your ideas to ebrack2@gmail.com, and tell us your hometown.

The most recent mystery may not have been recognized by many residents who pass by it often, since the angle used in the photo by Bruce Johnson of Lawrenceville was so distinct.  

Let Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas, pick the story up: “Today’s mystery photo is of the First Baptist Church of Lawrenceville, Ga. It is one of the oldest congregations in Gwinnett County and was officially constituted on May 2, 1849. Today’s sanctuary was completed in 1962 and has undergone significant renovations and major architectural updates since that time, including the addition of the prominent steeple and bell tower that were completed in 1999.

Others recognizing the mystery included David McClesky of Lawrenceville; Charles Anderson of Hartwell; Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.; and George Graf, Palmyra, Va
