[2] Construction of the current Gothic Revival church started in 1913 under the supervision of French-trained architect Emile Ulrich of Cleveland.

Completed in 1917 at a total cost of $250,000 (equivalent to $7.53 million in 2023), the most prominent feature was the twin 150-foot towers capped with stone steeples built almost exclusively of white marble from nearby Pennsylvania.

Angels on clouds carry banners with the words to the Hail Mary prayer in Latin.

"Ora pro nobis peccatoribus, Nunc et in hora mortis nostrae" (Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death).
