Its fourth building, located on Holmes Road, was designed byKivett and Myers architects in theModernist style, considered "striking for its exterior profile and massing and its combination of natural and industrial forms to create an appearance rooted in both primeval nature and futuristic design."[3] Completed and dedicated in 1967, it was demolished after the congregation relocated to Overland Park in 2000.[3][4]
