Timothy G. O'Connell

Who was Timothy G. O'Connell?

Timothy G. O’Connell was an American architect whose Boston-based practice specialized in ecclesiastical design.

O'Connell is reputed to have produced some 600 civic and religious buildings. Some of these structures such as the Church of Sts. Peter and Paul in Lewiston, Maine would rival any medieval cathedral in form and scale. Unfortunately little is currently known of this architect and his work. When he closed his office in Boston in the 1950s he destroyed all of his records and drawings.
