We are just finishing up the Construction Documents for a new 11,000 sf office building for the Mississippi Watershed Management Organization. This facility will be located on the Mississippi river in North Minneapolis. The cool thing is that there will be a bunch of interpretive (educational) features focusing on water that are incorporated into the building and the site.

As the construction moves forward this spring, we will highlight some of those features and interview members of the team. Stay tuned! Click on the images to enlarge.

We are under construction!

The primary goal of the congregation was to make the facility accessible to all. Other challenges that were brought forward included security issues, interior space and circulation congestion, inadequate bathroom and kitchen facilities, etc.

It was decided to take a step back and create a long-range Vision Plan for the church.  Through discussions, workshops and studies, we were able to resolve these issues and more.

The result and implementation of Phase One includes a 6000 square foot addition that houses administration, meeting rooms, a future kitchen along with an elevator and restrooms.  A curved circulation link at the front helps alleviate internal congestion, expands the Narthex and leads to a new and welcoming entry.

The church has put together a blog highlighting the construction progress.  You can watch it here!

Future phases include interior remodeling and a youth and choir addition.
