Summary
[edit]DescriptionJami Masjid Buffalo - fmr Queen of Peace RC Church - Buffalo, New York - 20200531.jpg |
English: As seen in May 2020: Jami Masjid Buffalo, 1955 Genesee Street at Forman Street, Buffalo, New York, a building that began its existence as home of Queen of Peace Roman Catholic Church. A work of the architectural firm of Dietel & Wade, its floor plan is unlike any that of any other Catholic church in Buffalo: it's a T-shaped multipurpose structure encompassing a rectory to the west, a school building to the east, and the worship space itself extending north-to-south between them. Aesthetically, its design bears multitudinous hallmarks of the Late Gothic Revival style; the façade is of polychromatic Ohio sandstone accented with Indiana limestone trim, and trios of lancet windows are found above and on both sides of the elaborately panelled, Gothic-arched main entrance. The steeply-gabled parapet roof crowning the façade is accompanied on its east side by a diminutive domed spire topped with a tall finial. Queen of Peace was founded in 1920 to serve a Polish-American community that, in the years immediately preceding, had migrated north from the Broadway-Fillmore neighborhood, where the bulk of Buffalo Poles had settled, to work in nearby railroad jobs. A small wood-frame church was constructed within a couple weeks of the church's founding, followed by a school building the next year; both were superseded in 1928 by the present building. The Queen of Peace parish was dissolved in 2007 in the wake of the Buffalo diocese's "Journey in Faith and Grace" parish consolidation program and was purchased by its current owners in 2009, who operate Jami Masjid, a mosque and Islamic community center, on the site today. |
