"1877 Gothic Revival church
Designed by Stigers, Boettner, & Eckel, this brick Gothic Revival church has a prominent three story corner tower with addition fourth story spire roof. The sanctuary has a gable roof with ridge line parallel to Francis Street, and parapet edge on the west. Gothic arches, some with stone labels and other with header brick voussoirs, mark the windows and entry doors. The deeply recessed main entry, with steps having stone balusters, have carved wood doors. The main portion of the church sits on a high foundation on the south side. The fenestration of this level has segmentally arched openings. There are also brick buttresses on this elevation, and the large stained glass windows have been covered with protective panels. The entry door on the north addition of the church has stained glass sash and a stained transom above. There is an oriel on the east side into the alley with elaborate detailing and copper cladding."
