Every now and then I drive past a very big Mansion on Sugar Creek and I've always wondered what exactly it was! It looks like a palace of some sort...wayyyy too big to be anyone's home. It sits south of WT Harris and north of Nevin Rd. Just curious, what is this place?
You must be talking about the tacky one with the lions out front? I have heard that it is the pastor's home for the tiny church adjacent to the property.
You canNOT be serious! It's about 10x the size of the church (the really colorful one next to it?)! Please tell me you are kidding :-) Can someone else prove me and PeytonC wrong!
Sounds like the congregation helped him get rich. I've seen those churches in different areas around Charlotte, including the one beside the "Palace of Lions".
My school bus used to go by there, and I remember whispers of golden Rolls Royces...
I am a long time charlotte native. I recall "sweet daddy grace' He was a very important person in black religious community. They showered him with finacial offerings .
Oh, wow! I will have to read up on this. I, in no way meant to disrespect the church or the Pastor. Thanks for the information. I am going to pay closer attention next time I drive by
