Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church
Colonial Heights, VA | Seats: 1,000
We added on to the existing colonial-style building of Mt.
Pleasant Baptist Church by incorporating design elements of the
original building. We were able to create a subtle colonial yet
modern addition that compliments and even overshadows the less
appealing features of the existing facility. Valuable stained glass
was moved from the old building and installed in the new building.
The new stained glass windows are backlit to appear as if
they are exterior windows, when in fact, the space behind is
occupied by essential platform support areas. The chandeliers
in this traditional sanctuary are equipped with motors that allow
them to be lowered, enabling light bulbs to be changed easily.
