English: Baitul Mamoor Jam-e-Masjid, 64 Titus Avenue at Empire Street, Buffalo, New York, May 2020. A Modernist building whose striking design is the work of local architect Joseph E. Fronczak, it sports an angular, roughly trapezoidal entrance piercing the base of the odd, flat, jagged-looking brick "spire" that's centrally located on the boxy main façade, front window ornamented by a cross that's a clue to the building's original purpose as second home of St. Joachim's Roman Catholic Church. Founded in 1902 to serve a neighborhood that at the time was a small island of German-Americans amidst the vast Polish district of Buffalo's East Side, the congregation's original church on the same site burned in 1942 and, after a period spent worshiping in a temporary chapel in the basement of the parochial school, was replaced in 1954 by the building seen here. Less than 40 years later, in 1993, St. Joachim's was one of several inner-city parishes that were dissolved in a round of diocesan downsizing. Subsequently to that, the church served as home of the Free Spirit Missionary Baptist Church until 2014. Now home to Baitul Mamoor Jam-E-Masjid, serving the a Muslim community of mainly Bangladeshi origin.
