Description: Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Designed by E. Townsend Mix in Gothic Revival style and built at a cost of $200,000 in the wealthy Yankee Hill neighborhood in 1873, the church is located just one block away from another church designed by Mix, All Saints Episcopal, which was originally built as Olivet Congregational Church. Both edifices are now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built of buff-colored Wauwatosa limestone enlivened by red and gray limestone interjections typical of the Victorian era's pleasure in polychrome ornamentation, Immanuel Presbyterian also had a colorful interior designed by Peter B. Wright that was destroyed in an 1887 fire.
