Alderwood Manor Ward Exterior
I haven’t been to this building yet, but wanted to post this to try and find others who are familiar with the building. Well-known and influential Seattle architects Ibsen Nelsen and Russel Sabin won a 1960 AIA Washington State Honor Award and a 1961 AIA Seattle Honor Award for this adaptation of a Standard plan. The AIA Jury said of the building, “A Church, rare in these days of architectural exhibitionism, having qualities of dignity and simplicity: fine massing of church and school volumes, with generous, graceful roofs. Completely thought through, with pleasant color and sensitive incorporation of outdoor spaces.” (Church News Jan 27, 1962 Des News)
