Cathedral of St John the Evangelist
The Right Reverend Edward Makin Cross came from Minnesota to be the third bishop of the Episcopal Church's Spokane diocese in 1924. He proposed a cathedral that would symbolize the church to the whole region. St. James Church, St. Peter's Church and All Saints Cathedral would sell their respective properties and combine to fill the new church. The diocese commissioned architect Harold C. Whitehouse, a church member, to design a gothic cathedral in the English tradition.
