Analyse de la valeur patrimoniale de l'église St. James United à Montréal
Abstract
Montreal's St. James United Church, built between 1887 and 1889, reflects the design of the Methodist churches of the late Victorian period by its scale, its central location, its eclectic Gothic Revival exterior, its interior plan inspired by an amphitheater and its sophisticated facilities for its Sunday school. Designed by Montreal architect Alexander Francis Dunlop (1842-1923), St. James Church was at the time of its construction the largest Methodist worship venue in Canada. The exterior of the church is a Victorian image of a medieval French cathedral. The interior is designed in "the Akron auditorium plan" popular with North American Presbyterians, Baptists and Methodists in the late nineteenth century but unique in Montreal.
