Grey Eagle Village Hall Conditions Assessment
The project involved creating a condition assessment report conducted by a qualified architect for the Grey Eagle Village Hall, which dates back to 1934 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The assessment included an examination of all interior and exterior spaces and materials to evaluate their current condition and to identify any necessary repairs.
The primary objective of this initiative is to rehabilitate the Grey Eagle Village Hall, turning it into a vibrant community center that serves not only the city but also the surrounding areas. Once restored, the building will provide a variety of functions, including space for recreation, exhibitions, community education classes, concerts, theater performances, celebrations, receptions, and meetings for local organizations and clubs.

At the completion of the condition assessment all targets were achieved. We achieved those results due to good communication between the architect and the project manager. MacDonald and Mack provided a complete and thorough assessment of the building giving us clarity in the future direction of the project.
