Former Springfield church demolished to make way for medical offices
Developer Fran Cataldo has demolished the former Gardner Memorial AME Zion Church at 90 Carew St. just less than a year after acquiring the property from DevelopSpringfield. Cataldo plans to build a 13,000-square-foot medical office building at the site, he said. Construction on the $3 million project will begin in mid May. “I think its exciting for the neighborhood,” Cataldo said.
