But 64m tall. by the early 19th century, the church had grown so cramped that a new church was clearly necessary. The basilica was the answer to that challenge.

The Sulpician Fathers wanted to construct a larger than any other place of worship in the Americas, built in an innovative style. Remark- ably the architect they chose, James O’Donnell, was an Irish Protestant.

The basilica was built between 1824 and 1829 to O’Donnell’s plans. Usually described as Gothic Revival in style, experts now view the basilica as Gothic Regency, a classical style com- bined with Gothic ornamenta- tion.

The basilica's facade reflects this co-existence of classical and medieval styles. While the windows and spire give it a Gothic appearance, the sym- metry and repetitive pattern of its rectangular elements are more classical. The facade is enhanced with three statues: the Virgin Mary; Saint John 22 228 Discovering Montréal's Religious Heritage story of Rosalie Cadron-Jetté 1746 and 1788.
