The building’s condition presents challenges, including deteriorating walls, damaged plaster, and non-compliant ADA accessibility features. The first floor, fellowship hall, and second-floor nave are in good general condition but need to be reviewed closely to maintain the Historic Character while providing required proposed use change and life safety upgrades. These could include re-swinging existing doors, timber framing reinforcing, and assessing the handrails and staircases for code-compliance. The historic elements such as stained-glass windows and woodwork will be restored, while modern systems and structures, including elevators and compliant egress paths, will be integrated into a new addition to meet current standards.
