I think it is a greek orthodox church. It should be a little more to the south

It's called St Viateur Church and I believe it is a Catholic Church.

Cette église porte plutôt le nom de Saint-Michal-and-Saint-Anthony.

Il s'agit d'une église catholique situé dans le quartier multiethnique du Mile End (Arrondissement du Plateau-Mont-Royal).

Elle est l'oeuvre de l'architecte Aristide Beaugrand-Champagne et des ingénieurs Charles Michael Morssen et E. Brown. La décoration intérieure est reconnue pour ses peintures, oeuvre de l'artiste québécois d'origine italienne Guido Nincheri.

Cette église est reconnue comme étant exceptionnelle selon le ministère de la Culture et des Communications du Québec.

L'église Saint-Viateur dont fait référence monsieur Delorme, se retrouve à quelques kilomètres de là, dans l'arrondissement d'Outremont.

C'est sans doute l'une des églises les plus surprenantes de Montréal. Je me permets d'indiquer à ceux qui s'y intéressent une autre vue de l'église, prise du viaduc Van Horne, qui montre à quel point sa tour domine le quartier.

I heard "Catholic" being tossed around and Irish-built, but the architecture looks Eastern Asia/ The tower "says" minaret more than "bell tower". Kinda like Russian Orthodox with some Muslim thrown in.

But what do I know, I didn't even stop to read the history paper in front when I went by.
