Sts. Peter and Paul Church, Burgundy St., New Orleans, LA
St. Peter’s Church was built roughly in 1860-61 and the tile of St. Paul was added at a later date. Father Moynihan provided additional funds, from his own pocket, to build a rectory. Upon his death later, he gave the building to the Parish. The church closed in 2001, but due to a fire at a nearby church in 2003, Sts. Peter and Paul was reopened temporarily. It has since been closed again.
