First l/j^^^S^ C1'"11*'-" ot Christ, \[/73t*Q)U)) 'Scientist, which was W[JmmmmrJI^ recently opened on \==zs£&(—~iz5k Georgia Street, West, has several-unique distinctions, even in such a city or new churches as Vancouver. In the first place, it is the only house of worship of any size in the city which was entirely planned and the erection commenced during war time. It also has the distinction of being probably the most fire-proof . church in the city, as far as construction and materials are concerned, a fact that is borne out by having the lowest Insurance rate of any place of worship in the central part of the• city. It has also the advantage of facing on two streets. Altogether, it is an edifice of which the members and adherents of First Church of Christ, Scientist, can feel justly proud. For thanks to the genius and ability of Robert M. Matheson, the rising young architect who designed THE MAN WHO CONCEIVED AND DESIGNED THIS MODEL CHURCH ROBERT M.'-MATHESON Architect ' it, this newest of Vancouver's places of worship not only provides an " ideal and commodious auditorium for divine service, but also affords every facility and accommodation for the different branches of church work that go so far towards assuring the successful existence of any church in these times., The exterior of the edifice presents a pleasing appearance, the typical Colonial design being, admirably worked out in a special make of the celebrated Clayburn vitrified brick with which is strikingly combined trimmings of Haddington Island ^tone. The dull red brick is all laid up with wide, white mortar joints, and the combination of the two colors gives an artistic effect that looks good at a distance and heightens with closer inspection. The general construction has been carried out in vitrified brick, stone, concrete and hollow tile—a combination that will readily appeal to any builder as being about the nearest approach possible to absolute fire-proofness.

JAMIESON & CO., LTD. 1075 Hamilton Street. Seymour 2268 H S5C-- BRITISH COLUMBIA RECORD INTERESTING DETAILS OF CONSTRUCTION AND IN ERECTION OF Total Cost Amounts to Over S65.000. Representing a total outlay of between $05,000 and $70,000, which the building committee of the. church la ready to admit wan all wisely expended and splendid value secured for every dollar of outlay, the new church stands as not only a credit to the city;:- but also an enduring monument, to the progres- siveness of the local follower;* of Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the • Church of Christ, Scientist In size, the edifice is 6C by 131 feet, occupying the fiillof the lot. Incidentally, it also affords by con- « trast a mute but eloquent tribute to the successful progress ■. of. this particular' church locally, for it adjoins the former church/building, which for some time has been far too small to accommodate the worshippers. An exchange 'of property was effected and the new church . erected on the adjoining lot to the east— an achievement that is also'unique in church history. Still another unique advantage, which this new church possesses is that it fronts on two streets, Georgia and Alberni. And .the- advantages of this double entry and exit have been taken full advantage of by Architect Matheson In designing tlie edifice. Entering from the Georgia street front through three large double doprs with typical Colonial arches, one finds oneself in a roomy vestibule, faced with dull red brick and finished in white and mahogany. At either side, flanking'the stairway leading o o o o VANCOUVER'S NEW FIRST CHURCH OF CHRIST, SCIENTIST o o o o •first a very completely fltted-up cloak room, "which with its ultra-modern equipment affords ideal. fac|lities for rapidly taking care of and checking'- large numbers of hats, wraps and -clonks of all kinds. Adjoining the cloak room is the men's retiring room and lavatory. • Cosy Quai'tera Provided for Church. Official*. and elaborately Auditorium Is Considered A Model of Ita Kind. • The crowning feature of this' splendid 'edifice, however, is conceded to be the big auditorium, which in the matter of the three prime requisites—seating, lighting and heating—is considered to be a model of its kind. For it embraces some features distinctly new- and ultramodern in its designing and execution. further'along''on the west side are The total seating capacity is S50, which the ladies' room and behind that the organ motor room, wjiere. behind thick, sound-proof walls, is housed the p6wer- ful electric motor which drives the fan for the organ. Further still along on' the east side of the foyer are neatly- fitted up rooms for the readers, the organist, soloist and the ushers. The latter room has a nicely fit ted-up wardrobe for tlie conventional frock coats which the ushers wear when officiating. In the south-east corner is located tho or children's primary-- with its, low benches, necessary equipment .for opening services , :•:■ despite the fact If one enters from the Alberni street side, a short flight of steps brings one down to the foyer,, where on the west side at that end is another elaboiately fitted up cloak room. Next comes the primary < room, Sunday school,, desks and other the little folk. in; a building of that size , is . in . itself remarkable. This capacity is, secured by placing the speaker's platform in the centre of the. auditorium on the east side and arranging the pews in amphitheatre style around it, thus utilizing to advantage every foot of. floor space. And every seat 'In every pew gives a clear and uninterrupted view of the speaker, due to nicely calculated incline of the floor. li\ acoustic properties, too, it would be hard to beat this-auditorium. That faot was strikingly demonstrated at the held recently,; when, that every seat ' was filled, even a whisper from the speaker could be clearly heard to the furthest corners. One thing that conduces to the excellent acoustic properties is the. fact that there is not a single pillar or post to obstruct the sound or view in the whole auditorium.;" The clear span of C6 feet in the roof is secured by clever use of massive steel and wood trusses. ,: iv:.-,--. and artistic housing that has been given the intricate and elaborate mechanism of the grand instrument. To the layman, probably tlie most striking feature is the big organ case which occupies a large section of the oast'wall of the auditorium. Differing noticeably from most church organ mountings, there is an entire absence of pipes visible anywhere, yet the tonal effects of the splendid instrument have not been hampered in/ the slightest. This artistic result lias been achieved by placing nil the pipes in tiers of chambers which in turn are concealed behind one of the most artistically executed organ' cases in the whole Dominion, specially designed by Architect Matheson. To Messrs. Rush & Head belongs the credit of executing the superb ornamental plaster finish on tlie organ ease. The sculpture work and ornamental fret work on this organ screen Is con-' ceded to be a masterpiece. It is beautifully finished In old ivory. Standing out in relief on the rail of" tho organ case and immediately above the speaker's plaform is lettered the words' of the First Commandment, a touch of gold bringing out the beauty of the .neat Roman lettering. Tlie open fret work of the screen gives every facility for resonance and sound • diffusal, and this radical departure from the stereotyped style of exposed organ pipes has been pronounced by expert musicians as eminently practical as well as artistic. Decorative Motif Is Study in Warm Greys. The organ console and pulpit rail are in mahogany finish to "match the woodwork of the pews. The. reader's desks are both equipped with ^Clever mechanical devices, specially designed by Architect Matheson, by which tlie incline angle of the desk top can be'changed or the height of the desk raised or lowered over six inches to suit the stature of tho render. Last, but by no means least, it may be said thai a full mead of praise Is due to fue artistic and stately decorations of the auditorium. The 'decorative motif is very cleverly carried out as a chiiste study in warm greys.

Iii thorough keeping with the artistic setting given it, is the grand Canadian made organ, which besides .meeting the most exacting tests in tone and volume which the most gifted musician can devise, also demonstrates that it is no longer necessary to send out of the Dominion for one of these monster instruments.

And either by natural or artificial light, there is a restful and artistic predominant note of soft, amber shade in' the lighting effect. By day, this is secured through the daylight entering through the large, arched windows at either street front of the church, as well as a large skylight over the centre of the auditorium. These high, full length windows are. of light amber shaded cathedral glass supplied by W. Holt, glass manufacturer of this city." The MAIN ENTRANCES ON GEORGIA STREET, SHOWING TYPICAL COLONIAL-'ARCHED DOUBLE DOORS AND ARTISTIC BRICKWORK ventional panelling designs are so nicely proportioned and the tints so delicate that they tend to produce the optical illusion of even greater height and. size in the auditorium "walls and ceiling. The work is a striking tribute, to the artistic genius and" ability of Mr. Arthur 1/. Eurle and his staff,, who have produced effects that have to.be seen and studied to appreciate the, full beauty secured.

The flooring of the Georgia street vestibule is. of inlaid brick in conventional design. Bamp Gives Easy Entrance from Alberni Street. At the Alberni street entrance, owing" to the difference in grade, access to the< auditorium is effected by.a ramp with a very gentle incline/ This makes .it possible to wheel an invalid •'. chair, right into the church, off the-street if desired without disturbing the invalidr^an advantage which it is doubtful if any other. church possesses. The Alberni street entrance is also finished in white and mahogany, while an. appropriate text in neat gold lettering is on the railing in front of the doors entering the auditorium. On the Georgia street side two massive but. neat stairways iead"iip to the auditorium from each side of the vestibule. These stairways are finished in white and mahogany', matching the rest of the decorations. Right in front of the main entrances on the Georgia street end are two double doors in design identical with the exterior doors! These doors enter upon a large roomy, well-lighted foyer which extends nearly the whole length of the building under the auditorium. This foyer represents one of the very latest developments in -church design, for it not only affords an ideal and comfortable place for ttiose impromptu gatherings, both before and after the service, but it also greatly simplifies the problems of access to cloak rooms, Sunday school library, directors' rooms, children's Sunday school, ushers' room and other necessary accessories of any modern devotional edifice. On the east side of the foyer on entering from the Georgia street end. there is boiler room where a large Gurney steam boiler furnishes ample steam at low pressure to make the whole church comfortable in even the lowest temperature Vancouver ever experiences. "Further northward on the west side of the foyer cornes the directors' room, fitted with' the conventional large table and also a- large lire-proof vault neatly located Mr. John Duck; local manager, for Farr, iat fits opening, as "simply perfect arid iiobiiison , & Bird, ;^ versatile "iti- actly the same sof.t, amber shaded rest- >' strument he''had ever played."

One noticeable feature which is sure to favorably impress; a visitor to this church for the first time—and especially if it happens to be in the showery winter months—is the self-locking umbrella racks conveniently located in both the Georgia and Alberni street vestibules: In these two banks of umbrella racks, which were furnished by the Backus Novelty Company of Smethport, Penn., there is "capacity for automatically taking care of 000 umbrellas. There is no need to take a damp umbrella into the churoh auditorium and stow It under the seat. Instead, the umbrella is simply placed in the individual rack which automatically locks it in place and delivers a small numbered check to the owner of the "gamp." And no one hut the holder of that little key-like check can open that particular rack and get the umbrella. This feature, together with the admirable facilities for checking hats ...and wraps, promises to entirely obviate wnat is often a very disagreeable feature of attending divine service in the damp winter months in churches where such facilities do not exist. have fully lived tip. to expectations in exacting tests. Architect Matheson has-- cleverly combined both systems to secure maximum results. The fresh air. enters through a number of ducts in the walls close to.the floor of the audi-; torium. These • ducts are located im-.;: mediately below the numerous radiators- 7 so; that in cold weather the low pres-'; sure steam heating system warms the,-: incoming cold air. The expulsion of the foul air is mainly, through large - ceiling ventilators above which are to", be located ' powerful electrically-driven suction fans to draw, out the foul air. . Sections of the large cathedral windows- are also arranged to be opened as desired from the floor, thus assisting in the summer months in securing a constant current of fresh air. The pews' are all of mahogany of special design to conform with other decorations throughout the church. Their rich coloring gives a pleasing note to the floor view of the auditorium, and in the matter of practical utility they are Ml.so remarkably comfortable to sit in. Their workmanship reflects credit on the Globe Furniture Co., of Waterloo, Ontario, who supplied them. Magnificent Organ Given Moat Artistic Setting. Most -noticeable feature, however, in the whole interior of the church is the magnificent organ located just back of the speakers platform, and the beautiful.

The choir and swell are enclosed in swell boxes, the. walls of which are six inches thick, thereby giving very effective crescendos. Through their electrical control and other 'special i, and patented devices, a considerable sid- • dition. has been made possible in the combinations which can be effected. On the "great" organ, thirteen, the vox humana. on this manual being reinforced at will in the octaves below and above, thus giving some remarkable chorus effects. The "choir" has ten stops, including very sweet chimes, and the "pedal organ" also has five stops with a trombone addition provided for.

Title | British Columbia Record |
Publisher | Vancouver : Record Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1919-05-02 |
Description | The British Columbia Record was published in Vancouver, and ran from June 1916 to July 1922. The Record was published every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As the official publication for the Architectural Institute of B.C., the B.C. Builders’ Exchange, and the Building and Construction Industries’ Exchange of B.C., the Record primarily covered news related to building, contracting, engineering, real estate, and industrial finance. The Record was published by the Record Publishing Company, which had previously published the paper under a number of different titles, including the Daily Building Record and the British Columbia Building Record. The Record subsequently evolved into the Journal of Commerce. |
