Shrine of the Immaculate Conception - Atlanta, Georgia

Completed between 1848-1873, it was the only building to survive the Burning of Atlanta, as Union General William Tecumseh Sherman (a Catholic) ordered his troops not to touch it

St. Augustine Cathedral - Kalamazoo, Michigan (completed in 1951)

[Canadian Catholic Aesthetics @CanCathAes]

Here is what the original sanctuary was like before the most recent renovation for those interested. I'd love for this to be rebuilt one day, but it still is a nice church today.
