Description
Taken from Thirty-Ninth Street while looking north, this February 29, 1932, photograph shows the rear of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church at 3860 J Street. The church’s rectory sits in the foreground. To the right of the rectory are the building’s cloisters. The cylindrical protrusion in the middle of the photograph is the church’s apse. The 150,000 dollar structure was built in 1931 to replace St. Stephen’s Catholic Church which would then be put into operation as a parish hall. Just a few years earlier, in 1926, the neighborhood of East Sacramento was made into a parish.
