St. James Episcopal Church Community Outreach Center

Location: Collegeville, PA
Description: Building Conditions Assessment and Master Plan of Community Outreach Center

St. James Episcopal Church is at a crossroads in its history. This congregation’s facility is made up of a number of unique historical buildings that are in need of repair and expansion. As a result, the Parish engaged GKO Architects to prepare a two-part study to help plan for its future. The first step was to prepare a Property and Buildings Conditions Assessment. The second step was the creation of a Campus Master Plan. The basic intent of the Assessment and Master Plan Studies was to provide a reference document for on-going maintenance and repairs to its buildings and grounds, and to provide a long-term “Vision of the Future of St. James Church”. We are currently designing an Outreach Center Building, identified in the Master plan, for the Parish.
