"Divine Lorraine, Chinatown The Loft District by True Hand Society. If you haven’t heard of or seen the Divine Lorraine, now is the time to catch up. It was constructed in 1892 to be luxurious apartments for Philadelphia’s elite, under the name Lorraine. In 1948 the building was sold to Father Divine who moved in his flock, the Universal Peace Mission Movement. Changing the name to the Divine Lorraine. We’ll let you do your own research on movement; trust us you want to. The building has sat abandoned from 1999 until now. Recent development has started again to bring the building back to its original glory of 1892."
