St. Joseph Roman Catholic Church and Rectory was a historic Roman Catholic church and rectory located at 108 Franklin Street, Rochester in Monroe County, New York.

The simple church was enlarged in 1849 into a cruciform plan that could seat a thousand parishioners.

Many of these satellite churches and schools lured away parishioners and students, causing building replacements to the complex and finally closure and sale in the 1970s.

[4] The fire destroyed the church, except for the tower and walls, forcing the parish to abandon the ruin.

The Landmark Society of Western New York, the State University College at Brockport, city officials, members of the Downtown Development Corporation, and the original Roman Catholic religious order all supported preserving the bell tower and three extant bays (front façade) as a monument encased in a park, named St. Joseph's Park.
