The parish’s first structure was designed by the noted Galveston architect Nicholas J. Clayton. It was destroyed in the 1900 hurricane.
The present building was constructed in 1903-04. A prominent landmark in the city, it features ornate octagonal towers, flying buttresses, elaborate ornamentation, and a variety of arches.
The design reflects influences of the Moorish, Byzantine, Gothic and Romanesque styles.
The building’s original dome, damaged in a 1915 hurricane, was redesigned by Nicholas Clayton.”
