It is the seat of the Diocese of Memphis. The parish buildings are contributing properties in the Central Gardens Historic District.[1] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. HistoryImmaculate Conception ParishImmaculate Conception parish was established by Bishop Thomas Sebastian Byrne of the Diocese of Nashville in 1921. It was the ninth parish in Memphis.[3] Msgr. Dennis J. Murphy was appointed as the parish's first pastor. He built a three-story brick building that served as a combination church and school. It continues to serve the parish today as its school building. The Sisters of Mercy made up the school's first faculty. Construction of the present church building was begun in 1927. Richard J. Regan of Regan and Weller Architects was chosen to design the church. The lower crypt was initially built and used as the church for ten years before the upper church was built. The church was dedicated on July 31, 1938.[3] The parish's second pastor, Msgr. Francis D. Grady, had the decorative design work completed on the church's interior. Msgr. Merlin F. Kearney had the high school buildings east of the church built in the 1950s and 1960s. Immaculate Conception High School for girls was also begun at this time.
