Summary[edit]

Description
English: The former Our Lady, Queen of the Snows Roman Catholic Church, 219 East Commerce Street at Hickory Street, Milford, Michigan, December 2020. Dating to 1907, this was the second building to house the parish, whose previous location had been on the north side of town atop what was then known as "Catholic Hill". Detroit-based architect Harry J. Rill devised a Gothic Revival design that's unusual for the building material it employed, namely locally sourced fieldstone, making for quite a rustic look to the building. Impressive are the stepped crenellations atop the stout central tower, the projecting points at the corners of the stonework, and the cathedral-glass, oculus-style rose window above the entrance, one of three on the building. The congregation of Our Lady, Queen of the Snows moved once again in 1966 to a new church on the eastern outskirts of town, where it remains, and the building seen here served as home to an Assemblies of God congregation through the 1990s. It's now condos.
