Saint Mary of the Angels Convent was constructed in the 1920's and was home to a small number of comparatively ripened nuns until its closure about 10 years ago. I tried finding interesting historic dates or events to mention but I think the most interesting thing that ever happened here was probably the psychedelic paint scheme used in the chapel.

    Beautiful building. Is it Eastern Orthodox? Don't know if they had convents. This shows the Byzantine/Moorish decorations you see in Orthodox architecture.
