The Church of St. Timothy (Anglican)

The project resulted from a renewal of the mission statement of the church and a review of its facilities in light of its proposed new and enhanced ministries. Barrier free access, improved meeting spaces and completed upgraded facilities for Christian education and the wintertime weekly 'Out of the Cold' ministry were building issues identified as needing attention.

The first phase of the project consisted of a mid-week entrance addition providing access to hydraulic elevator and basement ramps. Through these, barrier free access was provided to six of seven levels in the building. The work also included extensive renovations and alterations to the three floors of the Christian Education Building, further improving access throughout the building and providing the improved meeting and Christian education spaces. Some exterior restoration and site improvements completed the Phase 1 work. The second phase was more modest and included renovations to offices and the main fellowship hall and its kitchen. David Paine worked on the design and carried out the production of the construction documents and site review during construction.

The project was tendered with both phases priced in the first year. The second phase was carried out as a negotiated contract based on the first year tender price. Phase 1 was completed in 1998 and the second phase of work was completed in 1999.
