Any hopes of salvaging artifacts of a landmarked Brooklyn church destroyed by a possible firebug have been torched, according to activists. The few remnants of the South Bushwick Reformed Church that may have survived the June blaze have been bulldozed by demolition crews in what locals called a “tragic and stressful” situation. “[We were] trying to preserve things like the cornerstone or the steel supports with the Corinthian tops that were inside the church on either side, but any of those architectural elements unfortunately were swept away with the demolition,” Dina Alfano, co-founder of the Bushwick Historic Preservation Association, told The Post.
