Measurable Outcome(s)

Our measured outcomes and targets were achieved through the consistent hard work of our partners - MacDonald and Mack Architects and the review staff at the Historical Society. Working together with members of our congregation these committed partners helped us realize construction drawings that preserve and restore our building, meet our needs, and provide the opportunity to increase access and use of our historic building.
