Second Baptist Church Worship Center Renovations, Houston
The almost 30-year-old sanctuary at the Second Baptist Church Worship Center in Houston was severely damaged during Hurricane Ike and had to be rebuilt as quickly as possible to allow services to resume in the main sanctuary.
Demolition and redesign started in January 2009, and the first service was held just eight months later. The scope of work included complete demolition of all finishes and the installation of new audiovisual systems. The job required the erection of 40,000 sq ft of scaffolding 50-ft high to install new audio/visual and ceiling finishes.
