Regarding St. Saviour's Chapel. The chapel was patterned after the Chapel at Rugby School in England. It was designed by Reginald Johnson, the son of the first Episcopal bishop of Los Angeles. Its pews face the center aisle. The chapel was built in 1914 at the original campus of the Harvard School at Western Avenue and Venice Boulevard. When the campus moved to its present location in 1937, the chapel was divided into sixteen pieces for the move.
