Project Description:
This classic style structure was completely destroyed by fire creating a challenging time line and design program on a small neighborhood site. The project was designed, approved and reconstructed for 1.2 million dollars in just 11 months. The new design expanded the Narthex with an elevator, enlarged the Chancel and increased the Sanctuary seating to 350. The design also incorporated 10 new classrooms, a nursery and added a new Multi-purpose room with a warming kitchen. The design of the new construction was developed to blend with the restored main entrance and steeple using brick, dryvit and sloping roofs.
