Location: Raleigh, NC
Edenton Street United Methodist Church asked us to help them select a location for a new church community in downtown Raleigh. We identified a mash-up of four different buildings on a downtown corner built between 1905 and 1986. Over the years, repeated renovation had yielded a circuitous maze of hallways, offices, and inaccessible spaces. We worked with the church to create a sanctuary, define a single, pronounced point of entry, open new fellowship spaces to the outdoors, and establish an accessible route throughout the complex. The former maze now accommodates regular community events and weekly worship for three hundred people.
