Holy Rosary Roman Catholic Church (Formerly Saint Joseph's Episcopal Church)--Detroit MI

            This Richardsonian Romanesque church was built in 1896 for an Episcopal congregation. In 1907 it became Holy Rosary, a Catholic parish.

The building was designed by the noted architectural firm of Malcomson and Higginbotham, which was responsible for several churches and school buildings in the city.
