Bowerman Assoc. underway with addition to Grace Episcopal Church

Grace Episcopal Church - Providence, RI

Providence, RI According to Bowerman Associates construction is underway on the Grace Episcopal Church located on Westminster St.

Westminster has seen a renaissance of development in recent years. As a century and a half old anchor of the street, Grace Episcopal Church will expand into a new modern glass-filled gathering hall. This new building will be adorned with an outdoor cloister garden and meditation area to compliment the event gathering hall.   

Grace Church was originally designed in 1844 by Richard Upjohn, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Grace was the first asymmetrical Gothic Revival church in America. In 1912, another architect, Ralph Adams Cram, designed the chancel, making it the only Upjohn-Cram church in the world.

The congregation comes from up to an hour a way to be a part of this active community.
