The church pictured in Today's edition of Downtown Houses of Worship is Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Downtown Detroit. It's staffed by the Jesuits, and is the oldest Church structure built in Detroit. According to the website for the Church (linked here), The cornerstone was laid in 1844, and was remodeled a few times in its history. This view of the church (the building with the Green Roof) was taken from the Detroit People Mover on the way to the Renaissance Center stop. I was here once for weekday Mass back in March, and it's a beautiful Church on the inside. I like the high Altar of this church. This is right next door to the law School of the University of Detroit, which the Jesuits helped to found in the 1800s.
