Event Description
Charles Cregar was no stranger to ecclesiastical design when St. Joseph Parish hired him to design their new edifice in 1892. That year the young architect was working on four church designs simultaneously, each in a modified version of the Richardsonian Romanesque style. With St. Joseph, Cregar attempted to meld the Romanesque with the church’s preference for Gothic. The results were stunning. Join us as we explore the religious center of the Irish Hill neighborhood with historian Mary Oliver. Meet outside of St. Joseph Church at 819 Kenton Street.
Free for Members. Guided by Mary Oliver. Sponsored by Pete & Sandy Hackett. Mobility 1.
