St. Mark's Cathedral bell tower is located right out front near the street and has the look of an old Spanish church tower. The bell rope is located on the outside of the bulding and can be seen from the street.
On November 15, 1870, Saint Mark's Parish was formally organized, and services were held in the crypt of the unfinished building on September 3, 1871. The cathedral was consecrated on May 14, 1874. Bishop Tuttle noted, "When completed our church will have cost, I fear, $40,000.
