Preserving our "poems in stone . . ."

Modern technology helps Christian Science Center project

From the July 1994 issue of The Christian Science Journal


It's virtually impossible to move through the Back Bay in Boston without noticing the architectural splendor of the Original Mother Church, which was completed in 1894, and The Mother Church Extension, which was completed in 1906.

They are works of art that are appreciated by a wide public. Tourists snap pictures of them, students ask questions about them, children see them through the watery arches of the fountain. And the soaring main dome lifts the spirits of many people who live in the neighborhood.

To these people, the Original Church and Extension—rising above flower gardens and reflecting pool—are an important part of their everyday landscape.
