“The whole point of this project and the ones we started with in this church, is that we really want to both preserve and rebuild and then find these kind of spaces, environments and communities where people are unified and connected. It’s important to cultivate these dynamic, creative flourishing developments and environments where people get to find their own passion, too.” —Audrey Banks, CEO & Visionary
Preserving the historic elements of the church was a top priority for ALLinONE. The original stained-glass windows, wooden pews, and exposed brick walls are being carefully restored to maintain the building's character and charm. The team is also looking to collaborate with local artists to create possible murals and installations that pay homage to the building's past while embracing the future.
The Church has been transformed into a modern creative space that serves the community's needs. ALLinONE recognized the need for a space that could be used for events, co-working, community gatherings and more. The space will house a recording studio, event space, and communal working areas. The team at ALLinONE believes that preserving the building's historic elements while incorporating modern amenities is essential to the success of the space.
The Church is more than just a building; it is a symbol of the community's resilience and determination to preserve its cultural heritage. By restoring and repurposing the building, ALLinONE is providing a space for the community to come together, work, and celebrate.
Preserving historic buildings like The Church is not only important for maintaining a community's cultural identity, but it also has economic benefits. By repurposing historic buildings, communities can create new opportunities for local businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs.
In conclusion, historic preservation is crucial for maintaining a community's cultural identity and heritage. ALLinONE's restoration of The Church is an excellent example of how preserving the past can coexist with the future. The team's careful restoration and repurposing of the building have provided a space for the community to come together, work, and celebrate. By preserving historic buildings, communities can create new opportunities for local businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs.
