Easily identified by its copper-topped towers, St. Vincent de Paul was founded in 1875 by the Vincentian order. The present-day church was completed in 1897 and is considered to represent architect James Egan's finest work. It took 17 more years to furnish and decorate the elaborate interior.

Aside from its architectural significance, St. Vincent de Paul is special for hosting Karina's parents' wedding in 1987!
