(College Park, Md. – September 11) – On Monday, September 10, demolition work began inside the house which the province purchased for the D.C. SDB community about a mile south of the University of Maryland campus. Renovations will turn a 1930s boarding house into a modern residence with eight bedrooms, five baths, chapel, new and enlarged kitchen, meeting space, etc.
