PROJECT DETAILS
Exterior restoration involved removal of the existing original windows, replacement with energy efficient replicas, selective repointing and leaning of the original gray limestone, restoring the clock tower matching existing details and repairing and replacing the slate roof.
Interior renovations included extensive demolition of all walls and ceilings, removal and replacement of all mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems, an elevator and new secondary stair and extensive woodwork fabrications.
Located at the heart of Middlebury’s historic “stone row”, the Old Chapel was designed to resemble a New England mill building with its gray limestone, row windows and great chimneys.
