- St. Joseph's Church (Roman Catholic) is at 135 Lafayette Street at the corner of Dow St. This new structure was a replacement for the original Romanesque Revival church built c 1910/11. The former church was burnt to a hollow shell after the 1914 Salem Fire.
- For years the parish used the renovated cellar and tower bases of the old church, until 1949, when they started the new church.
- St. Joseph's Church is indicative of the International Style of architecture, with a minimum of ornament.
