    I am working up a proposal for a coffee table book titled Heavenly Havens:  Amazing Uses For Former Churches, Synagogues, Other Houses Of Worship and Commerical Structures That Have Been Converted Into Homes. 

    I'm looking for homes that have been converted from churches, mosques, synagogues, or any commercial building, such as banks, car dealerships, gas stations --  you name it. The more unusual, the better.  And the more gorgeous photographs, the better.

    I will interview owners, architects, and builder/contractors who did the work, and real estate agents.  I will need gorgeous photos.  All owners, architects, builders, photographers will interviewed.  Sources and photographs be credited in the book.

    I would appreciate contacts from your organization -- please send me their contact information -- e-mail addresses and/or phone numbers - or  ask them to e-mail me for starters.

    Thanks so much.

    Judy Mandell
