Occupying a prominent position in the neighborhood for worship and community events, the existing 1910 building suffered from difficulties of access to both the exterior entrance and upper floors. An addition accommodates a new elevator that provides access to upper floors, as well as new universal and barrier free washrooms. To enhance the historic façade and its rich details, the addition was sensitively designed in the spirit of the existing building.
Reconfiguration of the main entrance with AODA compliant exterior access is provided with stairs, ramps, and enlarged vestibule. Interior improvements included upgraded lighting and interior finishes. New exterior lighting highlights the historic architecture and creates an inviting entrance.
