California Chapel Landslide
Urban forestry workers remove branches from a redwood tree as they prepare to cut it down next to Wayfarers Chapel, a sanctuary by architect Lloyd Wright, also known as "The Glass Church," in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., Wednesday, May 15, 2024. The modernist chapel features organic architecture with glass walls in a redwood grove overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Part of the Swedenborgian denomination, the church's followers share in 18th-century Swedish scientist and theologian Emanuel Swedenborg's "quest for a religion that interconnects all of life, and for a system that allows reasoned questioning of life's deepest religious issues," the chapel's website says.

A wood base supports the tilting walls of a hall leading to Wayfarers Chapel, also known as "The Glass Church," in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., Wednesday, May 15, 2024. The famed cliffside location on the Palos Verdes Peninsula is also responsible for its downfall. While the Portuguese Bend landslide began in 1956, it's recently worsened, and chapel officials say the earth underneath "The Glass Church" and its surrounding area is now moving an unprecedented 2 feet (0.61 meters) or more each month.
