High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Yorkminster Park Baptist Church is the largest Baptist church in Canada, built 1926-8 by the architectural firm George, Moorhouse and King, and is named after the 10th century York Minster in York, England. It is located in Toronto's Deer Park neighbourhood, at the northeast corner of Yonge and Heath Streets. Its immense size gives Yorkminster Park seating for 1,200 people in the main sanctuary and room for 500 more in the transept and galleries. This is made possible, in part, by having a 55-foot nave unobstructed by pillars, a feat accomplished by a technique not available to the medieval architects of the original York Minster: a steel trussed roof. From the west wall to the chancel steps is 158 feet, and the crossing measures 107 feet. Built in the Gothic Revival style, the church is made of Owen Sound rubble stone walls, and Indiana limestone was used for the piers, arches and traceried windows in the aisles, nave and transepts.
