School Addition, St. Mary's Gate of Heaven, Ozone Park

Boegel and Allodi were the architects for the original school and convent in this parish, and then worked on this school addition building circa 1965:

The news clipping talks about how the building is a youth center, with college-size basketball court, and eight classrooms. CYO basketball still takes place in the building.

Convent at St. Dominic's, Oyster Bay

Another building where I can't get Street View. My guess is that the convent building is the one across the street from the high school -- I think it's the building with the "A" marker in this map:

St. Brigid's Chapel, Carle Place

St. Brigid's Chapel is now known as Our Lady of Hope Church, in Carle Place. It's another instance where I can't get a good Google Street View image. Take a look at the last image on this page for a good image of the side of this church.

The chapel was built in 1954. Our Lady of Hope was established as a parish in 1987.
