St. Stanislaus is built to relieve the crowding at St. Albertus
Detroit, Michigan

By the late 1890s the Polish congregation at St. Albertus was too large for one building, so the archdiocese carved out a new parish in 1898 and put this church on Dubois Street. It is one of a ring of Polish churches on Detroit's near east side that mark how fast the migration filled the neighbourhood. It went on the National Register in 1989.
