The assessor dates the building to 1900; Planning's historic resource survey records 1854. The city's statement on early settlement era styles dates the church twice and disagrees with itself: its landmark list gives about 1854, its illustration caption about 1852. The building is dated 1854 in its landmark designation; the assessor's roll gives 1900.
