Sepia Photograph of Bar Harbor looking east over the village to the Porcupine Islands. The street in the foreground is Mount Desert Street. Update 6/19/21: According to Mr. Daniel Pyle (current organist/music-director at St. Saviour’s) this photograph, which shows the original church-building, must date from sometime after 1878 (when the first building was completed) and 1885, when building of the current structure must have started (it was completed in 1886).

During the 1870's as many as 3,000 visitors patronized the place each summer." - Steam to the Summit: The Green Mountain Railway - Bar Harbor’s Remarkable Cog Railroad, by Peter Dow Bachelder, p. 24 - 2005. This building was replaced with a much larger structure, The Green Mountain House, when the Green Mountain Railway was built in 1883. [show more]
