Description

The Holy Name of Mary Roman Catholic Church is located at 149 King Street North. It was built in 1892 by Toronto based architects Post and Holmes. The stone laying of the church was completed by Patrick and John McFadden, David Fitzpatrick and John Keen. The church was built in the Gothic Revival style with features such as the lancet arched openings, pointed dormers on the roof and large, round quatrefoil windows.

In the winter and early spring of 1982-1983, Randall Speller, a colleague of Larry Pfaff from the Art Gallery of Ontario, took a series of black and white photographs of buildings of architectural significance in St. Marys. Larry Pfaff and several local friends who shared this interest in architecture took some additional photographs in a subsequent summer. This photograph is one of this series.
