Description
Our Lady of Fatima Statue in the Peace Garden of St. Leonard's Church in the North End - Boston Massachusetts.
St Leonard's first Roman Catholic Church in New England built by immigrants from Italy, in 1873. It is located at the corner of Hanover and Prince Streets in the heart of the historic North End,
It reflects the waves of immigrants that came to the United States during the 19th and 20th centuries taking up residence in port cities and creating ethnic enclaves such as Boston's North End.
The Peace Garden is known to all in the neighborhood and beyond as a peaceful retreat from the busy streets of the North End.
