  • Description
  • This image shows the previous St. Irenaeus Catholic Church building, located on 2nd Street and Delaware Avenue. St. Irenaeus celebrated their first Mass on March 17, 1907, in this building that had been purchased from the Episcopal Church. The growing congregation necessitated a change in location, and on December 7, 1952 the new cornerstone of the St. Irenaeus Church was blessed at 387 Maryland Avenue, where they are still located today. This building on 2nd Street and Delaware Avenue was then home to the Women's Club of Oakmont and now houses the Riverside Community Action Corporation (RCAC). The website for St. Irenaeus can be found at www.saintirenaeus.org. Originally from the Oakmont Centennial Book Collection.
