The former Sacred Heart Catholic temple was the only structure that was not demolished when the Golden Gate barrio disappeared. The Mexican-American neighborhood was razed to make room for the expansion of the Sky Harbor International Airport and the Sky Harbor Center. The empty building was added to the Historic Property Register in 2007. Photo by Eduardo Barraza | Barriozona Magazine © 2004
