Holy Rosary Church, built in the 1930s, is a traditional stone church in the Romantic style in down/mid-town. It's beautiful, unassuming, and when you walk in, you'll find the unexpected in Houston; iyou've traveled to Europe and visited the old churches, Holy Rosary will take you there. There's also some new construction to some of the auxiliary buildings that were torn down and built in the style of the church with stone. The aux buildings were originally brick buildings that lacked character themselves, no preservationist would miss them. What's taking their place, though, is something that will be worthy to preserve. The church, though, is not built in the old style. Although they look like stone churches, and they are stone, the frame is steel and there is also insulation, except for perhaps the church which might just be steel and stone. The aux. buildings may have gypsum board in the interior, I'm not sure because they're not finished. This makes the second of the two small churches in Mid-down that were recently renovated. The other similar-sized Methodist stone church had the stone cleaned on the outside and it's creamy white again - truly a beauty.
