While scouring the city coming up with an accurate inventory of mid-century architecure, I came across Glenwood United Church on Grand Maris.
The cornerstone reads 1962, but I have no idea on an architect for this one Architects were J.C. Pennigton & William Carter.
When viewed from the rear the uniquesness of the roofline becomes plain to see, it is unlike any other building in the city. I bet that would be quite the job to reroof, it would cost a small fortune in shingles! 
It’s magnificent.
Also could double as a rocket launcher during the cold war.
It looks like there is a similar church on norfolk, south windsor if i recall. If thats the case, I rememeber that architect being a William Faser. not 100% though..
Thanks Fausto, I’ll check it out. William Fraser, was active at that time, so he could very well be the architect on this one too.
Edit above – I discovered the Architects were Pennignton & Carter
Andrew, what of the funky church on norfolk?
I haven’t found anything on my lists, and the rain kept me away on my way home from work. I’ll swing by and check it out in the next day or two…
Amazing! I attended Scouts there in the 70s-80s, it’s about 4 blocks from where I grew up! The strange becomes the mundane when you see it every day since childhood – I recall going back to the ‘hood with my wife (not from Windsor) and she was blown away by what us south windsorites don’t even really see – that weird roof! One thing you can’t see is a stretch of barbed wire that goes along the roof about 10 ft off the ground – to prevent climbers I suppose…….I know my friends and I plotted how to toboggan down it on snowy days!
Also, weird coincidence – I worked in the Cleary guest house for about a month in the summer of 88, summer job with Parks and Rec, I was I think the only student working the graveyard shift (11-7AM). Job was to restore the grass in dieppe park after the freedom fest carnival, so I had to manually move the sprinkler heads around the park at night. I think it was about 2 hours of work in a given 8 hours. Met some freaks down there late at night. The little room for Parks& Rec was between the 2 bathrooms, kinda small and crappy, FYI. Thanks for all the memories and documentary history!
I happen to know that two undergraduate students also contributed to the exhibition at the AGW. They researched material, conducted an inventory of the city, and found material in the archives. I am surprised to see that they are not mentioned here, as I believe it was them who discovered this church.
My sister was married in that church. It reminds me also of Paulin Memorial church which I went to as a kid in the 70s. I think I got my taste for mid century from these types of buildings…
