     History
    The Parish of St. Joseph was established in 1873, carved from St. John the Evangelist Parish, to serve Catholics in the northeast portion of the city. In 1879-1880, the parish erected a Gothic-style building, designed by Diedrich A. Bohlen, at the corner of North and Noble (now College) Streets. During the following decade, parishioners added a rectory and school. The sanctuary contains ceiling paintings by Italian artist Giovanni Gioscio. In 1949 Bishop Paul Schulte ordered St. Joseph's closed, making it the first parish casualty of urban flight. In 1950, the bishop established a new St. Joseph's parish on the city's southwest side near the Indianapolis airport. Currently, the Hispanic Center is housed in the old parish rectory.
