The parish was established in 1867 and originally located on Noble Street. As the Polish community in Chicago continued to grow, the need for a larger church became evident. In 1881, construction began on the current church building, designed by architect Patrick Keely in the Gothic Revival style. The church's impressive facade features twin towers and intricate detailing, making it an architectural gem in the city.
Throughout its history, Saint Stanislaus Kostka Church has played a significant role in preserving Polish culture and heritage in Chicago.

I made my Holy Communion and Confirmation there. I remember the night it stormed so bad and lightning struck the tower on the right side of the building. Can't remember the exact year though. I'll be 70 this May ; )

why do you think the expressway goes around the church?

Just seeing this, sorry. The Polish community rallied to save the Church. So the Kennedy curves around it.
