Asbestos 2.png

Asbestos Mitigation was required.

We passed the inspection!

Furthermore, this work has revealed... 

beautiful old wooden boards!

Asbestos mitigation was only required in the worship space (walls and ceilings).


These boards were discovered under the "popcorn" ceiling.

This is the view of the sanctuary.
Some of the boards are original 
(you can tell by the old nails);
others are not.
One of our renovation goals 
is to preserve and use as much of the "original fabric" of the church as possible/practical.
Our team is on the lookout
for items of valuable "historicity."

Note the shreds of wallpaper original to the 1892 building renovation.
