Property on which to build the parish facility was obtained on I Street in the vicinity of Watt Avenue and a temporary rectory secured by purchasing a ready-made house on the corner of Watt Ave and Bolivar.

Upon application for a building permit, it was discovered that our property was located to close to the landing strip of McClellan to be used for a school. As a result, the permit was denied and other property had to be located.

By that time, the area was building up and the only property suitable for our needs was the acreage at the intersection of Don Julio and Walerga Road, the site of our present facility. Ten acres were purchased for the price of $21,000.
