Exterior Brick Restoration — Final Phase

McDougall | Upcoming — 2027

Restoring McDougall's historic exterior brickwork has been one of the most significant investments in preserving this century-old facility.

Approximately one-third of the brickwork was restored before Central acquired the building in 2025, and we completed another third in 2026. The final phase, planned for 2027, will address the remaining exterior masonry.

This work involves repairing damaged bricks, removing deteriorated mortar and inappropriate past repairs, and repointing the masonry to protect the building from further deterioration.

While much of this work is about long-term maintenance rather than creating new ministry space, it is essential to protecting the building we've been entrusted with. Completing the exterior restoration will be a major milestone in preserving McDougall's historic beauty and preparing it to serve future generations.
