Broadway Church of Christ
1924 Broadway
From the Singer Store in 1890 to the last 60 years on Broadway, the congregation has met in homes, schools, the courthouse, the jail and even the Nicolette Hotel. Designed by Blum Haynes in 1948 of Romanesque Revival style, the Broadway Church of Christ features buff brick and clay tile roofing. The bell tower is similar to the campanile in Milan, Italy and the sanctuary facade is reminiscent of the Pisa Cathedral.
