The building looks much different now; a renovation in the late 1950s completely changed the exterior. It was built in the mission style; I'm not sure what I'd call this style.
The good news is that they didn't move the art glass window, and many of the chapel's details remain intact.
The chapel had some additions built on in later years, creating an open courtyard that is common to many chapels in this area.
The plague that was originally on the exterior of the building is now on display in the lobby.
More pictures to come!
I believe this is the building where my father was baptized; all I know is that it was in Santa Monica, and there probably weren't too may chapels in the area in the mid-1930's.
