RARE OPPORTUNITY! St. Patrick's Church stands as a striking stone church on Patrick Street in west end St. John's! This registered heritage structure was the tallest building in St. John's for 71 years (1888-1959) and holds aesthetic and historic significance, showcasing Gothic Revival elements such as sandstone voussoirs framing arched double front doors, cross-shaped windows, and a bell tower with a 19-meter spire. Designed by renowned Irish architect J. J. McCarthy, the church features stone quoining, triple and double stepped lancet windows, and a vaulted ceiling with arcaded bays. Its interior boasts a pointed main arcade, massive columns, and wooden plank doors. Commissioned by Bishop John T. Mullock in 1853, St. Patrick's Church took more than two and a half decades to complete, finally consecrated in 1881. Recognized as a National Historic Site of Canada in 1990, its distinct features, including its hilltop location, polychromatic masonry, and Gothic decorative elements, make it a testament to Victorian-era church design. Zoned Institutional, the possibilities are abundant such as place of worship/assembly, offices, institutional use, or residential care facility just to name a few.
