PLANS COMPLETED FOR NEW CHURCH

Methodists of Payette to Erect One of the Finest Edifices in the State.

Plans for the new Methodist church at Payette have been completed by Architect 
William Noot, and the trustees are now advertising for bids for the 
construction of the building, which will undoubtedly be one of the finest 
church edifices in the state.  It is believed that the cost of the building 
when completed will reach in the neighborhood of $4,000 without the seating.  

As is generally understood, the site for the new church is to be on the corner 
of Ada avenue and Park street, east of the Payette Valley Mercantile Company’s 
store and in the same block.  The plans, which were shown the Independent by 
Architect Noot a few days ago, show that the proposed structure is to be in 
every way a great credit to the city, already noted for its attractive and 
substantial buildings.  The church is to be of the Gothic style of 
architecture, constructed of brick to the ceiling line, with a tower entirely 
of brick, and shingled gables.  The auditorium is to be of a capacity for 
seating 250 persons while there is to be a lecture room, so arranged as to be 
thrown in with the auditorium by opening folding doors, which will have a 
seating capacity of 100 more.  At the rear of the lecture room, there is to be 
a study for the pastor and a kitchen for use at times of festivals.  Below the 
kitchen, in the basement, there will be a furnace for heating the building with 
radiators.  Plenty of exits are to be provided as there are to be two main 
entrances in the tower and doors on the south and north.  An abundance of light 
will be insured by large gothic windows, very handsome in appearance.
