| Additional Information: | City of Green Bay, Wisconsin - Architectural and Historical Intensive Survey Report Phase 1 - 2021 Photo code #2: 75BR-7/25 Entrance front remodeled and original spire removed at a later date. Church has the typical polychrome brick work of the style with excellent corbelled brick freize under the main eaves and gable ends. There is a later flat roof side porch on the south facing facade probably of the same vintage as the remodeled entrance front. The church has a polygonal apse on the west end of the nave with a rectilinear, flat roof addition north of the nave across the rear of the church. #650: St. Patrick's Parish House at 211 North Maple Avenue (60-23) next door. The nineteenth-century Irish Catholic immigrants to Green Bay operated separately from the French Catholics of the St. John’s parish and constructed a non-extant wood-frame church on the west side in 1865. In 1893, the congregation constructed a new church, located at 201 N. Maple Avenue. The brick Gothic Revival church was designed by architect C. C. Buck. For more information on C. C. Buck refer to chapter 9 Architecture. A non-extant associated school was completed in 1905. St. Patrick’s constructed an adjacent rectory, known as the parish house, in 1921 at 211 N. Maple Avenue. The brick Georgian Revival Parish House was designed by architects Foeller, Schober, and Stephenson. The St. Patrick's Catholic Church was included in the survey but is not eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. However, the St. Patrick’s Parish House is significant under Criterion C: Architecture as an excellent example of a Georgian Revival House. The period of significance for the property is limited to 1921. |
