Summary
Friends Church Orange is moving across Almond Avenue into the old 'hangar' warehouse, an adaptive reuse project that drew zero opposition. The church runs a monthly food pantry serving about 200 families and partners with youth services; commissioners credited it with turning the packing house from the city's top crime spot into a community asset.
