From the Church District Highroad Grace Site, take the path going northwest. Enter the tunnel in the path and proceed straight ahead to reach Church District Entrance as shown in the picture below.

From the Church District Entrance, go west. Your objective here is to reach the roof on the opposite site. Jump down the roof ahead and walk around the water to reach the other side. Then jump across the water to reach the roof further west. Then go right and climb up the platform on the right side. Then walk west on the platform and jump at the end to reach the last roof on the west side. The path that you need to follow is shown in the picture below.
Note: If you are unable to make long jumps, continue holding the sprint button while jumping to make it further in the jump. Also, lose some weight to jump farther.

Move south on the roof till the end. Then turn towards the water and jump on the inclined column as shown in the picture below. Use the inclined column to climb the roof up ahead. You will find a hole in the roof there as shown in the second picture below. Jump down through the hole and reach the floor on the south side. Then jump down the hole in the floor as shown in the second picture below.

After jumping down, go through the door on the west side. Then immediately go through the door on the left side to come out from the building as shown in the picture below. Take the path across the water as shown below. Then climb up the ladder at the end of the path as shown in the second picture below. There you will find a lever. Rotate the lever to drain out the water.
