Westminster Presbyterian Church, designed by Sacramento architect Charles Dean, is an excellent example of the Spanish Eclectic style popular in California in the 1920s.

In the late 19th century and early 20th century, the predominant architectural styles in Sacramento were Queen Anne and Italianate. After World War I, architecture based on traditional European styles - such as the Spanish Eclectic, English Tudor, Italian Renaissance and Norman - became predominant. Indicative of the new architectural trends in Sacramento, Westminster Presbyterian Church replaced two Queen Anne residences.
