The First Presbyterian Church formerly on Anapamu Street across from the library, was originally designed by architect Roland F. Sauter in 1918 (published in The American Architect, 1919). On June 29, 1925 a devastating earthquake caused the bell tower to crash in to the sanctuary. The church was rebuilt following the same plan but in an art deco influenced mission style.
