Abstract
Description
Saint Patrick's was started in 1871 but not completed until 1877. An architect of renown, Patrick Kiely, was brought in from New York to design the church and supervise construction. Blue flintstone for the gothic structure, still the largest in the city, came from the nearby Pennsylvania railroad cut.
The congregation donated the thirteen bells in the church tower; they are inscribed with the names of the nineteen soldiers from the congregation who died during World War I.
