Our Lady Help of Christians Historic District
Our Lady Help of Christians Historic District, Catholic historic district in Newton, Massachusetts, United States.
The district features four brick Gothic Revival buildings: a church, convent, rectory, and Trinity Catholic High School, forming a cohesive architectural ensemble.
Built between 1873 and 1890, the first three buildings were designed by architect James Murphy to serve the growing Irish Catholic population in Nonantum.
The district represents the expansion of Catholic institutions in Massachusetts during the late 19th century through its educational and religious facilities.
Located at Washington and Adams Streets, the complex includes educational facilities now occupied by private schools and continues to function as a religious center.
The church underwent substantial renovation in 1900 due to construction defects, resulting in additional wall supports and Gothic porches on the facade.
