The building where St. James”' members worship today is 60 years old; it is a modest and beautiful church that is lovingly maintained. It was designed by architect Irwin H. Kilstofte and constructed at its current location in 1959. On February 27, 2018, the Heritage Preservation Commission voted unanimously to approve that request. One questions was: “Is it about the people or is it about the building?” It”'s an interesting question and one where the answer does not have to be “either/or” but can be “both/and.” | Courtesy Mpls.
