Description: History, description and photographs of this Gothic Revival church designed in 1889 by Chicago architect Henry Starbuck, from the US National Register of Historic Places Seattle Itinerary.
Trinity Parish Episcopal Church--Seattle, Washington: A National Register of Historic Places Travel Itinerary , Trinity Parish Church is one of Seattle's oldest continually meeting congregations and the "Mother Church" of Episcopal mission activities in the city. Formally established on August 14, 1865, as the "unorganized mission" of Trinity Church, the Church's first building was not erected until 1870. As with other western churches of this time, preachers stayed for only a few years and occasionally years would pass between preachers. During this time of inconsistency, the church was still able to develop into an "organized mission," but Trinity Parish did not gain full Episcopal Church status until Rev. George Herbert Watson arrived from New Jersey in 1878. The growing church laid the groundwork for its outreach by establishing five mission churches in the next 10 years in addition to Grace Hospital, one of the city's earliest.
