According to an article published in the Courant today, the Pearl Street Congregational Society’s building committee had selected Ernest Flagg to be the architect for their new church building on Farmington Avenue.
The article did not specify when the building committee had made this decision.
The Pearl Street Congregational Society formed its building committee on July 19, 1897.
Flagg planned to be in Hartford on August 10, 1897, at which time he would survey the property at Farmington and Woodland and then meet with the building committee in the evening.
“Mr. Flagg will be in the city Tuesday to look over the ground, in order that he may design an edifice suitable to the ground and the surroundings.”
Flagg’s brother was Charles Noel Flagg, an artist living in Hartford.
