Saint Saviour's Chapel stands on the grounds of the Harvard-Westlake School in Studio City, Los Angeles, a Mediterranean Revival structure completed in 1914 and designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument. Designed by Reginald Johnson, son of the first Episcopal bishop of Los Angeles, the chapel was modeled after the Chapel at Rugby School in England and exemplifies the collegiate chapel style, with pews oriented toward a center aisle and a large rood cross crafted by the school's woodshop students. Originally built at the Harvard School's Western Avenue and Venice Boulevard campus, the chapel was remarkably disassembled into sixteen pieces and transported through Sepulveda Pass to the present Studio City location when the school relocated in 1937. In 1964, twelve stained-glass windows designed by school chaplain Rev. John S. Gill and executed by Judson Studios were installed to commemorate the chapel's fiftieth anniversary.
