St. Augustine Church, on Campfield Avenue in Hartford, is the architectural centerpiece of Barry Square, which was named for Father Michael Barry, the church’s founding pastor. The Irish Catholic parish was established in 1902 and a basement chapel was dedicated the following year. The completed Romanesque-style church was dedicated in 1912.

    Would you say this church might be a bit more Renaissance revival?

    Yes…my grandfather was the architect for this church and he listed it as “Italian Renaissance” specically North Italian.
