Additional Comments
HIGHLY POLYCHROMATIC TREATMENT WITH LIMESTONE AND BRICK CENTRAL SQUARE TOWER WITH ROUND WINDOW & POINTED ARCH WINDOWS, ELABORATE DETAILING, WAS ALL ADDED TO THE ORIGINAL BRICK GOTHIC REVIVAL CHURCH IN A 1926 REMODELING THAT WAS DESIGNED BY WILLIAM E. REYNOLDS, A GREEN BAY ARCHITECT. THE ORIGINAL ARCHITECT IS BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN JOSEPH LECLAIR, A GREEN BAY CONTRACTOR/ARCHITECT. THE INTERIOR OF THE CHURCH WAS GREATLY REMODELED IN 1998 AND A NEW (1998) ATRIUM IS NOW ATTACHED TO THE CHURCH'S EAST FACADE AND THE CHURCH IS ALSO NOW CONNECTED TO THE ADJACENT ST. JOSEPH'S PRIORY BUILDING BY A COVERED WALKWAY.
