Saint Thomas More Corporation, Twenty-Three Lynwood Place
Adaptive re-use of an existing single-family residence into administrative offices and an apartment suite for use by the Chapel and the Thomas E. Golden, Jr. Student Center. Located in a historic New Haven District, the project consisted of renovations to the 5,000 square foot, three-story building, a new rear stair and exterior ramp, and landscape and hardscape improvements. The first two floors were converted into offices and conference rooms while the third floor was converted into a two-bedroom apartment suite to accommodate visiting priests. Extensive restoration work was completed on the exterior. Significant landscape improvements around the building include a large courtyard with a decorative granite fountain. Scope of work also included all new mechanicals, a new commercial elevator, an addition for a new rear stair, and an exterior ramp for office access.
