An institutional structure with recent church ownership, sitting on an active Norwood block.
A 1920 structure in Norwood that has long served institutional and religious uses rather than typical residential occupancy. Ownership transferred in late 2024 to The Ethiopian Tewahedo Church of Our Savior, Inc. for $730,000, ending decades of ownership by Assembly of God entities. Three things to know:
Ownership has remained institutional for decades. Deed transfers show a move from Assembly of God affiliations to an Ethiopian Tewahedo Church entity in late 2024. For single-family structures, institutional ownership usually means low residential wear, but it also alters how the property is maintained and occupied compared to a standard home.
Indoor air quality calls pop up on surrounding blocks. Within three blocks around the building, residents logged 5 indoor air quality calls over the last year, with the most recent on September 16, 2026.

Within three blocks, calls over the last year are dominated by street-level friction, led by 290 illegal parking complaints—mostly blocked hydrants and double parking blocking traffic—and 175 residential noise calls.
