Loyola College Chapel.
Loyola College Chapel.
Architect Henri Labelle designed the chapel in the style of the original Loyola College buildings (1916+). It features high vaulted ceilings lined with heavy beams of British Columbia fir and stained glass windows. The building opened in 1933 and it served as both the College chapel and a Roman Catholic parish church until the 1967 inauguration of a separate Saint Ignatius of Loyola parish church. Since the 1974 merger of Loyola and Sir George Williams to form Concordia University, the chapel has served the Concordia inter-faith community.
1933.
