St. Andrew Lutheran Church
Orion
was honored to be chosen as a team member
for Phase I of St. Andrew Lutheran Church’s
master plan. The church has been a part of
the Franklin community since 1974 and has
been at its present location since 1982.
The congregations needs for worship and
ministry space continues to grow. Phase I
of their master plan includes a new nave,
new narthex, a columbarium, and preparation
for the installation of an historic pipe
organ.
The
project is in the “drying in” stage.
Roofing on the sanctuary has begun and is on
schedule to be complete in the next three
weeks. Work at the bell tower and vestibule
area has been hampered by late delivery and
some imperfections in the precast material.
Quality being a top priority, some of the
precast stone has been rejected. The
manufacturer is working with the mason to
expedite remaking the stone. The delay of
the precast will not postpone work
proceeding in the interior of the sanctuary.
The
underground electrical rough-ins are almost
complete, which will allow the interior
floor slab to be placed around the first of
June. Once the floor is in place, cured,
and protection installed, the interior will
be available for finish trades work to
begin. The fire protection work in the
existing building is almost complete. Once
the bell tower stonework is complete, the
remaining structural steel will be placed.
Orion is please to be working with Street
Dixon Rick Architecture, PLC, in providing
the members of St. Andrew Lutheran with a
worship and ministry space to meet their
needs. |
