On July 4, 1899, ground was broken for the Cathedral of the Madeline on the northeast corner of South Temple and B streets. Said to be the finest ecclesiastical edifice west of the Missouri and cost, including the bishop's residence, $600,000.

Good trick, since Prophet Young died in 1877. Unless...nah.

I was under the impression that Brigham Young helped build the Cathedral of the Madeleine also. I do know that he welcomed other faiths into Utah. Ha, after reading the article, Brigham Young did help with the building of the first Catholic church in Utah, St Mary Magdalene. The Cathedral of the Madleine is a most beautiful building.
