About this postcard

The Episcopal (Christ) Church in Waltham, Massachusetts, stands on a lawn with a tall central spire, pointed Gothic windows, and a green roof. Attached parish buildings sit to one side. The stone construction and Gothic Revival detail give the church a formal, established presence. Waltham was then a manufacturing city west of Boston, known for watchmaking and textile mills. The church's stone Gothic Revival design marked an established Episcopal presence in the city.
