Envisioned as a "fitting monument to the faith," the Cathedral was begun in 1899 and finished in 1954. The original design called for an English-Irish gothic church, but plans were later modified in favor of a French gothic aesthetic, which included elaborate rose windows, sculpture by the doorways, and shorter towers.
Sacred Heart is the fifth largest cathedral in the United States.
