Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception
This active cathedral at Colfax Avenue and Logan Street pairs French Gothic architecture with stained glass. It suits a quiet architecture stop, provided you plan around worship.
From the street, the twin spires give the building a clear place in the Capitol Hill skyline. Inside, the long nave and colored windows offer a different, quieter scale. The cathedral remains a place of worship, so a visit works best when you can enter respectfully between services.
