Building History

Church Building #1

St. Barbara's, a Roman Catholic Church, was first organized in 1906 at 4007 Valley Road. The architect for the building, Emile Uhlrich[1] of Fugman and Uhlrich, designed nearly a half-dozen churches in Cleveland.
The location made it difficult for parishioners from around Denison Avenue to attend, especially during the winter and when the dirt road was wet and muddy.
When the church burnt down in 1913, some parishioners were eager to have the church rebuilt elsewhere, preferably on Denison.

Church Building #2

In 1916, Bishop John P. Ferrelly purchased six lots from Caroline Loomis. The lots, part of the Petty and Baldwin Allotment, were all facing north on Denison Avenue. It was here, at the corner of West 15th St. that the second church was built as a wood frame building.

Church Building #3

In 1925, the third church was built as part of the new St. Barbara's Elementary School as an extension from the south side of the school. The previous church then was used as a hall.
