Description
Taken on March 28, 1932, this photograph shows the Mausoleum of the St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery at 6700 Twenty-First Avenue. The 80,000 dollar structure was built in 1929/30 in the shape of a cross and represented a culmination of the efforts of the Reverend Patrick J. Keane who died prior to being able to see the project through. The architect was the San Francisco-based B.J.S. Cahill who sought to give the structure the look of a church with several touches of the medieval.
