Daniels Recital Hall

[3] Built by the architects of firm Schack and Huntington, the structure is commonly placed into the Beaux arts style of architecture.This is important in that previously churches in the area had been built in what is commonly considered the Gothic Revival style of architecture.The change is thought to be a representation of a new simpler time as shown with the simple, yet still elegant exterior terracotta reliefs, and the harmonious synchronization of how these pieces become a whole.The form is a centrally planned Bastille like structure modeled after classical churches such as the order of Saints Sergius and Bacchus in Constantinople.There lie fenestrations on three of the four sides of the base, with original elegant stained glass windows laid into each of the openings.In the final alcove the structure houses a full pipe organ, as well as a stage which was previously used as the church's altar.[6] This motion failed due to the opposition of the church itself needing to gain enough money from the sale to relocate to a more convenient location.[8] In 2007 Daniels Development took over the land, and as the deal stated in 2008 the church education wing on the southern side of the sanctuary was torn down.[9] In 2009, Mark Andersen was appointed as Artist in Residence, and asked to provide a free noontime concert music series, with performances each month in the sanctuary.The developer would repurpose the sanctuary itself, and build an economically feasible tower in the empty space where the educational wing once stood.[2] In the Naughty Dog video game The Last of Us Part II, the exterior of the Daniels Recital Hall is recreated in a post-apocalyptic rendition of Seattle.
