Michael Graves Architecture & Design has acquired Waldon Studio Architects.

National Community Church – Miracle Theater

In 2011, National Community Church purchased the historic Meader Theater, now affectionately renamed “Miracle Theater”, to restore the building’s rich history, provide community activities and shows, and create a unique environment for worship. Located in historic Barracks Row, in Washington DC, this project is a great example of how church and marketplace can intersect, enhancing arts and entertainment in the neighborhood, while providing an intimate place of worship. WSA and consultants collaborated with National Community Church on the renovations, which include new theater signage and structural detailing, restoration of the existing facade, new acoustical treatments in the Lobby and Upper Balcony, a new kitchenette with infrastructure for a new concessions area. WSA worked closely with the District of Columbia for all necessary zoning and permit approvals for this project, which is located in a historic district.
