Description

[edit]
LDS Tenth Ward Chapel, July 2017

The district includes Late Gothic Revival, Greek Revival, and Late Victorian architecture in four contributing buildings.[1]

It includes an 1873 one-room Mormon meeting house, a c.1880 store with included residence, an 1887 school, and a 1909 chapel. The store appears to be one of the first works of architect Richard K. A. Kletting. The church, designed by the Ashton Brothers, is "known for its impressive stained glass window".[2]
