| Additional Information: | Large brick addition to east side of building. 2013- "The Romanesque Revival-style Church of St. Joseph was built in 1906. The church is clad in red brick with stone stringcourses, sills and coping and metal finials. The building is cruciform in plan, with a prominent square tower at the front corner. A large, modern, cross-gabled addition to the east (side) is roughly the same size as the historic portion of the building. Two large rose windows are located in the front and side (transept) gables. Other smaller, round-headed arched windows are located throughout the building." - "STH 49/Main Street", WisDOT ID #6090-06-03/75, Prepared by Justin Miller for GLARC, Inc (2012). |
