This stone church is the only remaining 19th century church building remaining in the community. The original structure was designed by St. Paul architect William H. Willcox, formerly a leading church designer in Chicago and New York City. The major part of the sanctuary was added in 1905 by Clarence Johnston, designer of the Minnesota State Historical Society and the State Office Building, located to either side of the Minnesota State Capitol. The church is built of Platteville limestone trimmed with brownstone and is rendered in the Victorian Gothic/Craftsman Gothic styles. This church was once an important meeting place for the wealthier New England stock in the neighborhood. The structure was converted to condominiums in the 1970s. [1] [2]
