Among the Churches

with contributions from R. M. Williams

The Christian Scientists of Denver are going to build a new church. They have bought the lot and broken the ground for it. The lot is on the corner of Fourteenth and Logan, near the Capitol Building.

The Scientists tried to get the lots right opposite the Capitol, but that land is in litigation, so they had to be contented with the next to the best building site in Denver. They paid fifteen thousand dollars for the lots. The church is going to be one of the most beautiful buildings in this country. Parian & Sterner are the architects.

The plan of the exterior is wholly on the old Greek temple of justice style, with a broad portico upheld by springing columns and crowned with a great dome. The material is to be lava stone and a brand-new kind of lava stone at that.
