Notes
  • Significance: The parish buildings of St. Ludwig's Roman Catholic Church are important landmarks to both a disappeared urban community and another that endures. The structures are located in an area of Philadelphia known as "Brewerytown," which was historically home to German-Americans and their breweries. After the breakdown of the German community in the area, particularly after the passage of Prohibition, African Americans located to the area and in addition to buying and renting area houses, they appropriated extant religious structures for their own ministries.
