Waldon Studio Architects [WSA] worked with Gardiner & Gardiner Construction to execute this design-build, renovation and addition project. The existing structure consisted of several decades of renovations and additions, therefore the project and structural aspects of the renovation necessitated careful attention to detail and analysis by the design-build team. The extensive renovation reimagines the character of the church, replacing a small, dark brick lobby, with an expansive, inviting glass lobby & seating area. Other areas of the church interior underwent major renovations, including interior classrooms and youth education spaces, which were reconfigured to accommodate greater visual control and required new structural components to support a more expansive open plan layout. Other upgrades include a new central staircase and elevator bay linking the upper and lower levels.
