2006 IDA Lee Willis Project Award

Saint Joseph Catholic Church

Winchester, Kentucky

 

This project was the winner of the 2006 IDA Lee Willis Project Award for Historic Preservation by the Kentucky Heritage Council at the Kentucky State Historic Preservation Office.

The Tradesmen Group, Inc. worked closely with a local historic arcitectural firm and a team of engineers to prepare a restoration strategy for their decaying steeple. The structural stabilization phase included replacement of wood member supports, brick restoration, ornamental sheet metal replication, and new slate roofing. We also provided masonry restoration services and gold leafing on the newly restored cross set at the top of this beautiful historic downtown steeple. Below are before and after pictures of the project.
