Episcopal Church of the Epiphany
Seattle, Washington

The historical Epiphany Parish is a complex of buildings located on a large site in the Denny Blaine district of Seattle. The buildings were constructed over a 60-year period. Development began with the Chapel built in 1911 and the Rectory built in 1922, both designed by Ellsworth Storey and are Seattle Landmarks. Both the Chapel and the Church are wood framed and emphasize craftsmanship; the rectory is a handsome Shingle Style design. The Great House is a two-story wood frame structure with brick veneer exterior and solid unreinforced brick parapets. The complex houses a school, meeting hall, church, offices and day care. The Great House, Chapel, Rectory and Church were retrofitted to reduce seismic risks, and a pedestrian bridge was added between the Church and Great House.
