  • Newton Country Day School Chapel
    Newton Country Day School Chapel In 1925, the Religious of the Sacred Heart transferred their Boston school for girls to the former Tudor-Revival style estate of Loren D. Towle in Newton, Massachusetts. The Boston architectural firm of Maginnis and Walsh (founded in 1898 as Maginnis, Walsh, and Sullivan) built the chapel and a four-story school wing between 1926 and 1928. The senior partner was Charles D. Maginnis (1867-1955), an immigrant from Londonderry, Ireland by way of Toronto, Canada. Maginnis’ leadership revolutionized the architecture of Roman Catholic institutions in America. In 1909, the firm won the competition to design Boston College and in the 1920s would build the library, chapel, and dining hall for the College of the Holy Cross, Worcester. The firm had then become highly honored; Boston College’s Devlin Hall had received the J. Harleston Parker Gold Medal in 1925 and the Carmelite Convent in Carmel, California (1925) and Trinity College Chapel in Washington, DC (1927) both won the American Institute of Architects’ Gold Medal. Maginnis was an admirer of the American Eclectic movement (1880s-1930s) which made use of a variety of historic expressions. The Newton Country Day School Chapel is English 15th- century Gothic. Its style shows an admirably simple practicality, yet evokes warmth through the use of wood for side paneling and roof. In the center, for the students, the seats face the front and the altar. The outer seating, used by the Religious for community prayer, is set in a choir-stall structure, aligned with the sides of the chapel and equipped with seats that fold up when they are not being used.

  • An Túr Gloine (Tower of Glass) at the Newton Country Day School of the Sacred Heart
    39 AN TÚR GLOINE (TOWER OF GLASS) AT THE NEWTON COUNTRY DAY SCHOOL OF THE SACRED HEART Virginia Raguin In 1925, the Religious of the Sacred Heart transferred their Boston school for girls to the former Tudor-Revival style estate of Loren D. Towle in Newton, Massachusetts [Fig.1]. The Boston architectural firm of Maginnis & Walsh (founded in 1898 as Maginnis, Walsh, & Sullivan) built the chapel and a four-story school wing between 1926 and 1928. Irish artists associated with the An Túr Gloine (Tower of Glass) Dublin collective produced the eight window program installed in 1929. The chapel’s images present a compendium of models for young women, from the beginnings of Christianity with St. Helena, the mother of the Emperor Constantine, Catherine of Alexandria, venerated as scholar and martyr, and St. Cecilia, patroness of music. The Middle Ages is represented by Catherine of Siena, theologian and activist who worked to bring the papacy back to Rome from its exile in France. Teresa of Avila was a sixteenth-century reformer of the Carmelite Order and named a Doctor of the Church. Directly associated with the Sisters of the Sacred Heart are the figures of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, the seventeenth-century nun granted the vision of Christ’s Sacred Heart, and St. Madeleine Sophie Barat, the founder of the Society of the Sacred Heart. The architect was Charles D. Maginnis (1867-1955), an immigrant from Londonderry, Ireland by way of Toronto. Maginnis’ leadership revolutionized the architecture of Roman Catholic institutions in America (Richardson). In 1909, the firm won the competition to design Boston College and in the 1920s would build the library, chapel, and dining hall for the College of the Holy Cross, Worcester.
