Additional Information: | Built before St. Mary's Catholic Church (1897). The old St. Mary's Catholic School is located near the church at the southwest corner of Seventh and Main Ave. and exemplifies collegiate Gothic architecture. However, the two-story red brick rectangular building has undergone alterations in recent years including the reduction of the window openings (originally six over six sash). Two new concrete block buildings were recently erected to provide additional space for the school. A modern rectory and a convent are also located on the church grounds. |
