Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church
2151 W. Washington Blvd., Chicago

This design represents a deliberate break from traditional church architecture. Originally built as the Third Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's combination of classical and modern elements demonstrates the architect's search for an appropriate design for the then-new Christian Science religious movement. Hugh M.G. Garden's distinctive ornament, often referred to as "Gardenesque," can be found throughout. The building was sold to the Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church in 1947.
