Description
Photograph of the exterior view of Pasadena's Christian Science Church, ca.1910. The Greek-style (or Italian-Renaissance-style?) building stands about six-stories tall. Wide concrete steps lead to a portico entrance. Six proto-ionic columns supporting a wide pediment form the portico entrance. There are five large double doors that allow entrance into the building. "First Chvrch of Christ Scientist" is engraved below the pediment. The left side of the building has similar features as the façade. The building has a dome roof. An early-model car is parked in front of the building. Trees and utility poles line the street.
