It was knocked down sometime in the 1970's (?) to make room for the new diocese offices and chapel. Does anyone have a photo of the old church? I thought it was pretty cool when I was a kid...
"St. Athanasius Episcopal Church, by Angeleno Heights resident Arthur Benton, once stood at Echo Park and Laguna avenues, across from Echo Park Lake in east Los Angeles. It was demolished in the 1990s".

Historic Aerials seems to back up the 1990s date.
