First and Franklin Street Presbyterian Church | Restoration
This project is a historical restoration of the landmark First & Franklin Street Presbyterian Church in Baltimore. Work included extensive roof repairs requiring the modification of the existing drainage system. The project involved a large historical interior paint and plaster restoration as well as the exterior re-pointing of existing masonry. Lewis Contractors added air-conditioning and duct work to the attic above and behind the vaulted sanctuary space, expanded the sanctuary platform, installed modern lighting and completed minor restorations to existing pews. First and Franklin Street Presbyterian Church is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
