Description
edit
The church was a red brick structure built in 1889 to a design by James Murphy in a Gothic Revival style. The campus also includes other Murphy designs, including a rectory (1893), convent (1905), and school (1905), and a parish house designed by Irving Gorman and built in 1925. The complex was built by the Roman Catholic Church within the Diocese of Providence to serve the area's growing Irish immigrant community.[2]
The complex was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1] The church has since been demolished, and its location is now occupied by Veterans Memorial Elementary School.[2] The former parish school still stands at 325 Cowden Street as the Segue Institute for Learning.
