Saint-Esprit-de-Rosemont Church
The Church of the Holy Spirit of Rosemont () (formerly the Church of Ste. Philomène), is a Roman Catholic church in the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie borough of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Built between 1931 and 1933, it is one of the rare churches with Art-deco architecture. The architect Joseph-Égilde-Césaire Daoust, completed the foundations and basement, 1922–23; and completed the church, 1932-33. It is situated on Masson Street, in the heart of the Vieux-Rosemont neighbourhood. History. One of the Gothic Revival style bell towers was withdrawn in 1949 due to explosions of  nearby mines that made it unstable. One of the art-deco style lamps, located on the forecourt of the church, was stolen during the North American ice storm of 1998. Characteristics. The church has a Casavant Frères organ, which was damaged due to water infiltration in the 1990s, but is almost completely restored now. It was built with gray limestone from the quarries nearby. The windows are the work of artist Guido Nincheri.
