Architecturally notable for its twin spires, vaulted nave, intricate stained glass, marble altars, chapels and a historic pipe organ, the building reflects rich craftsmanship and urban landmark status. The cathedral holds historical and cultural significance as a symbol of immigrant faith, public mourning and community celebration. It welcomes worshippers and visitors; administrative policies determine hours, admission and event arrangements, and the site provides general accessibility accommodations for people with mobility needs.
