Built
in 1905, The Church on the Hill is a North Shore landmark. The adjoining
churchyard is considered one of the loveliest memorial gardens in
the country. |

New
Spaces
In 1998, Christ Church parishioners launched a $5 million Capital
Campaign in order to renovate and expand our facilities at the
Church on the Hill. The Campaign met a successful conclusion in
the Fall of 2000. |
|
|
|
Our
facilities there are now completely accessible with elevator stops
at all levels. The altar rail is now on the floor level of the
nave. |

The
new altar and altar rail, and the repositioning of the font are
grounded in the centrality and accessibility of Baptism and the
Eucharist.
|
|
|
|
The
old altar now serves as facing for the retable and reredos, and
the original cross given in memory of Emilie Hoyt Fox has been
placed in the niche of the reredos.
The Tiffany window above the cross was given by the Fox family when the church was built in 1905.

The
most dramatic structural changes are in the church undercroft and
the spectacular cloister and connector joining the church to Church
House (the former Humboldt House). |
