Martin A. Carr
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Martin A. Carr was an Irish born architect, educated in England who was well known for his designs of Chicago area churches [1]. His designs include:
- St. Charles on 12th street
- St. Michael's on Washington
- St. Basils's/ Visitation
- Immaculate Conception
An avid reader of British art and Gothic Revivalist John Ruskin, some of his designs such as for Visitation have a very unusually sophisticated design[2].
