The entrance to the historic St James Catholic Church, in Louisville, Kentucky. The Church was built in 1912 by the famous local architect James J. Gaffney. The Church is located in the Deer Park Neighborhood of the Highlands District.
The Highlands are an elevated area above the Ohio River floodplain, that was among the last places near downtown Louisville to be urbanized, because of the difficult terrain. It is centered around Bardstown Road, Cave Hill Cemetery, and several urban parks, and golf courses.
The Church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982
