Building in New York City, United States of America
The Church of St. Frances of Rome is a Roman Catholic parish church under the authority of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, located at 4307 Barnes Avenue Bronx, New York City. The parish was established in 1898.[2]
The current building, built on the foundation of the older cruciform church, was dedicated in 1967 by Francis Cardinal Spellman.[3] Its architect was Paul W. Reilly.[1] It opened with a new pipe organ made by the Delaware Organ Company.[3]
Its name honors St. Frances of Rome.
