[1][2] Prior to 1925, St. Patrick's congregation worshiped in a Greek Revival building near the current church.

[3] The 1924 building of St. Patrick's features a nearly square floor plan, with its corners cut off by short angled walls topped with triangular spires reaching skyward.

In the design Byrne mixes Neogothic style (the emphasis on the vertical and the lancet windows) with Art Deco (the areas of wall space)[3] with a modern feel that could be Prairie School influence.

Alphonzo Ianelli, who had also worked with Frank Lloyd Wright, designed many of these interior ornaments.
