City Methodist Church, Gary

City Methodist Church was built in 1926 in an English Gothic style. The costs of its building were supported by the United States Steel Corp. It served as a church until 1997, when the structure was sold to Indiana University. It was a tall and large building that held the church, classrooms, meeting rooms and other spaces. Though the church is in ruins now, it is still a magnificent sight. The church was used as a set in the “Nightmare on Elm Street” movie.
