Architectural practice [edit]

In 1890 he moved to Hartford, Connecticut where he established an architectural practice under his own name. He carried on an active business as a designer of Catholic churches in the Gothic Revival style. O’Donohue is one of the few architects of Catholic churches to have also built for non Catholic clients as well.

Legacy [edit]

O'Donohue is not as significant a figure in 19th Century American Catholic architecture as his fellow countrymen and contemporaries Patrick. C Keely or Brooklyn, New York (1816–1896), James Murphy of Providence, Rhode Island (183?-1907), and Patrick W. Ford of Boston, MA (1848–1900). Nonetheless his work is appreciated today and several of his buildings have been selected to National Registers.[1]
