Construction update Aug 11-12

Today I found much of the sanctuary closed in. The next time I take pictures I'll have someone with me who can stand next to the building to give persepctive to the size. It's massive!!!

 In the coming week the steeple should arrive and be put on top of the tower making it the highest point in Fulton County! Watch the JCUMC website for information on date and time of the steeple's installation.

 The tower is already pretty impressive!

The next two pics are of the mock-ups of the exterior finishes. Notice the detail around the windows and the roof line.

Here are some photos taken June 17, 2012. The construction site looks very different now and I will try to get new pictures up in the next few days.

Sanctuary Exterior, June 17, 2012
The main organ will stand on the shelf in the chancel pictured below - right now it's just a concrete slab. There is plenty of room for plenty of organ!

The antiphonal divisions will stand at the back of the balcony in front of the green wall. There are tone chutes from the balcony floor through to the nave below so the antiphonal divisions may be heard under the balcony.
