One of Burlington's most prominent landmarks with its gold-domed bell tower rising 165 feet above the University of Vermont campus in Burlington, the 1926 Ira Allen Chapel was built to hold one thousand persons. A gift to the University from James Benjamin Wilbur of Manchester, Vermont, this was the first of several notable buildings in Burlington designed by the New York architectural firm of McKim, Mead and White. No longer a chapel, the building is used for meetings and such. Photo by Carol Highsmith.
