The Roman Catholic Church of St. Bernard was established in a
wagon factory located on West 13th Street. The present church was
designed by architect Patrick C. Keely and built from 1873-75. Keely
also designed the similarly-detailed Church of the Holy Innocents on
West 37th Street near Herald Square. St. Bernard has the distinction
of being the first church to be dedicated by John Cardinal
McCloskey, the first American cardinal. In 2003, the Archdiocese of
New York merged the nearby parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe with St.
Bernard's, renaming the church Our Lady of Guadalupe at St.
Bernard's. (Credit :
