Buildings Committee

The Church of the Redeemer itself is an English Gothic-style stone building designed by Henry Vaughan and built in 1915.  It has sixteen stained glass windows, the first eleven designed by Kempe & Co. in London and others designed by Burnham.   These were installed between 1915 and 1930.  A Victory Tower, designed also by Henry Vaughan and commemorating those from the parish who served in World War I, was added to the church in 1920 and has two additional stained glass windows.  In 1951, office space, a library and Church School classrooms were added to the building and in 1962, a parish hall, kitchen and more Church School classrooms were also added.  These two structures together are known as Weld House.  The entire church building currently consists of the church with Narthex, tower and bridal entrance, an Altar Guild room and Sacristy, five offices, a parish hall and kitchen, the Tripp reception room and eight classrooms, five bathrooms, a choir room and the undercroft.  In 1998, an elevator was added to make the building handicapped accessible. 

Next to the church is the Old Parish House, built in 1895.  This building houses our Facilities Manager upstairs and has two rooms downstairs that are used primarily by our youth and the PALS girl choir. 

Across the driveway stands our Rectory, a large single-family house built in 1896.  It consists of a living room, study, dining room, kitchen, pantry, hallway and powder room on the first floor, four bedrooms and two baths on the second floor, and three rooms, one bath and a laundry on the third floor.  There is also a basement, patio, two-car garage and front and back yard.
