St. Mary's of the Immaculate Conception was built in 1854 under the leadership of Archbishop Alemany. It is the first Roman Catholic Cathedral in California and the second oldest church in San Francisco that is still in use. Its foundations were imported from China, and the bricks brought around Cape Horn from New England. It is the site of the first Chinese mission in America, opened in 1903 by the Paulist fathers.
