Late Victorian Gothic in style, the church originally had a high spire above its square tower. Its sheer size and elegant architecture are a reminder of the once-well-to-do neighborhood that surrounds it.

Declared a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 1989 (No. 468). Located at 2210 Sichel Street in the Lincoln Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles
