Finished in 1887,Saint Boniface Catholic Church in New Vienna, IA. is one of the finest cathedrals in Iowa. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places....
Cropped to hide an unsightly "watch your step" sign which is a shame-the door is equally beautiful!
An interesting hodgepodge after modernization. According to tax data, the three dwellings have a total of 2,495 square feet of area and the entire building has an assessed value of $383,000 C.
The first floor steps are actually a mini-wooden deck and a guy is on the roof. I suspect that in 1900 it was not built as a three plex but this is just a guess based on its current unconventionality and convoluted appearance.
On my walk to the hospital for my immunotherapy treatments; I like to take different routes and explore the city when I have the energy to do so. I came upon a newer statue and small garden area. Overlooking this Grey Nun statue, over her shoulder you can see a bit of the garden and the St. Boniface Hospital in the distance. Just thought this is a different perspective of a monument... what does the monument see and overlook?

The old picket fence and the crudeness of the "boarded up" front door caught my eye.
Most of the visible part of the first floor except for the tower is in bad shape but the tower and second floor siding look quite new along with the tower roof. Curious.
I spent some time this morning in the old part of St. Boniface, the francophone (French) part of Winnipeg. I found some interesting and rather unique buildings in areas of St B where I had not previously visited. This is one of them.
I like hanging out in good back lanes generally but the fire escape, 2.0 and 2.5 floor porches, brick and hippie-era cloth poster had extra appeal. And what is going on behind the gray apartment block?
St. Boniface Catholic Church in rural Bigelow Arkansas. Established in 1843 and still holding services each Sunday.
Happy Slider Sunday - HSS !!
Rolling away from their away-from-home terminal, the Montreal-based crew is homeward-bound on a warm spring afternoon, hoping to make the 105-mile run back to Montréal as quick as possible. The curved trestle spanning a little creek just north of St-Boniface was the site of numerous run past back in the excursion days on the Joliette subdivision.
Now it's basically impossible to shoot anything here, except climbing onto the rock cut on the south side of the bridge, like we do on this pleasant railfanning day thirteen years ago.
Next stop for the train will be the south siding switch at St-Justin, holding the main for a meet with northbound M368.

St Boniface's Church stands prominently in the village of Bunbury, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.[1] The church dates mainly from the 14th century. Its features include the Ridley chapel, the alabaster chest tomb of Sir Hugh Calveley and the tomb of Sir George Beeston. Richards considers it is architecturally one of the most important examples of its period in Cheshire.[2] Alec Clifton-Taylor includes it in his list of 'best' English parish churches.[3] It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Malpas. Its benefice is combined with that of St Jude, Tilstone Fearnall.[4]

Almere was built at a time when church attendance was declining sharply. That is why it was decided to opt for ecumenical places of worship that Protestants and Catholics would make joint use of. Completely against the national trend, however, the number of Catholics in Almere has increased in recent years. This is mainly due to the rapid growth in the number of inhabitants in Almere, as well as to newcomers from countries where the Catholic faith is still widely practiced. Because of this increase, the Boniface parish needed its own church, where its own tradition can be visibly present. After years of preparation, the church is now in use. The architects opted for a classic starting point: a nave with two aisles and an apse at the end. Daylight has been chosen to enter the church from above. This gives a calming, sacred effect. That light also shines on the 72-meter-long artwork by Théodore Stravinsky that the church has purchased. That work was taken from a church in Almelo that has since disappeared. This artwork is incorporated into the top of the facade walls. The materials used for the church are often left unfinished, such as rough concrete, a laminated timber structure, wood paneling and rough masonry walls. The imposing artwork by Stravinksy enriches the art experience in Almere, so that the new church may be included in the art route.
Students are looking at the work of Bridget Riley, and this was created as part of the course, in the style of the great artist.
This is one of Alberta's earliest German Catholic churches, its first stage being built between 1905 and 1908. It was completed in 1912.
The church was in regular use to the mid-70s, and is still occasionally employed for special services such as funerals and weddings. Burials are still being made in the cemetery. A statue of the church's patron saint is located above the front entrance.
Tramwaj pędzi w stronę pętli Horní Hanychov. Kościół, który króluje nad okolicą, nadaje przystankowi nazwę (Hanychov Kostel, czyli Hanychov Kościół). Trasa na Horní Hanychov prowadzi przez dzielnicę o charakterze podmiejskim. Aż do przystanku Kubelíkova (6 przystanków) nie ma żadnych świateł.
W tle Kostel sv. Bonifáce (Kościół św. Bonifacego).

The building has retained its original splendor and resisted proposals to modernize it.
