Churches in the saintly city

I used to write about a church every Saturday but I stopped because I got so many calls from people wanting to buy churches.   I am a residential Realtor not a comercial Realtor and unlike some of my kind I do not try to be an expert in every type of real estate or claim to be a neighborhood expert for every neighborhood in Minnesota. . . .but I am good.  I asked some comercial real estate agents for help but never found one that would return the phone calls or emails of people looking for churches. . . or my phone calls either for that matter. 

Here are some pictures of Our Lady of Victory chapel at St. Catherines University in St. Paul.  The church is not for sale and I don’t sell churches I just photograph them.   

The church was completed in 1924 and is on the national register of historic places.   There are so many details on the outside of the church I just photographed parts of it to show them.

Cathedral of St. Paul, Minnesota

I must have 20 pictures of this amazing church.  I took this one on Labor Day because I happen to be driving by and I liked the clouds and the light.  I parked and took the photo with what is called a prime lens.  Since prime lenses have no zoom I had to stand in this exact spot to get the entire building in the shot.  The photo is in “explore” on Flickr which is quite the honor it is like winning the Flickr lottery.  It is getting a lot of attention.  To be honest the Cathedral is such a beautiful building it is hard to mess it up.   If you have a camera and like to take pictures I highly recommend photographing the St. Paul Cathedral for fun . . and for profit.
