Saint Stanislaus Church, Pittsburgh

          Roman Catholic architecture sometimes strikes me as kitschy, but I was at this place for a wedding, and thought it was worth noting.  This is the old, historic Polish church near downtown Pittsburgh.  It's got its own distinctive style, definitely more ornate--and perhaps more garish--than most Italian or Irish parish churches.  Much of the iconography was labeled in Polish.
