P7 Paris Presbyterian Church, 1893
164 Grand River St. N.
Architect Thomas J. Rutley created the same Romanesque Revival church design for the Paris and Chatham congregations. This imposing red brick structure satisfied the late Victorian demand for large-scale church architecture. Note the round stained glass rose window and terra cotta detailing. This was the fourth Presbyterian Church in Paris and the only one still standing. This building was funded through donations from John Penman.
