Bethlehem Temple Of Inkster deemed an eyesore. City of Inkster believes building has potential uses.

A former church called Bethlehem Temple Of Inkster located in Inkster, Michigan is being deemed an eyesore due to it being abandoned for a number of years. Many say the church should be torn down. The church is an old brick building with broken windows everywhere. Residents worry about the safety of children and predators that could very easily gain access inside.

Most of the interior has been vandalized and is in need of significant repair. Many windows are broken or boarded up. Inside wooden planks and plywood are scattered everywhere. A sanctuary inside the fellowship hall of this church which seats 400 people has been vandalized beyond what the eye can see or believe.

However the City of Inkster believes this old church building has many potential uses once the building is cleaned up and restored. This property had owned by a bank since 2014. The City of Inkster would like the fellowship hall and sanctuary to be refurbished. However the city cannot do anything with the property because the property does not legally belong to them.
