Window Restoration Project

After nearly a decade in planning (and half that time in raising funds), the MCA Building Committee is delighted to announce that the Munroe Center for the Arts building will be getting new windows! ... or more accurately restored windows.

The first part of this project involves the installation of a wheelchair lift at the back entrance.  During this time students, staff, and visitors will be asked to use the front entrances, or side entrance by the driveway.

Concurrently, 120 windows will be removed from one section of the building at a time to go to the shop of Olde Boston for restoration work.  These windows will return to us four to six weeks later.  Restoration will also happen en situ to the frames of these windows.

For anyone who has been watching this process, you will know that it is a very expensive one.  Much of the planning time has been sending out bids in hopes of getting quotes that matched the CPA funds appropriated in 2017.  After several tries it was clear that a construction boom had worked against us, and last year we applied for a state grant from the MCC, and in the summer were awarded $200,000 in matching funds.  This paved the way for bids to go out this fall, and the new year to see the selection of a contractor for this project.

Thank you in advance to everyone involved in this process for your patience.  Many windows in our 1905 building need repair to be both functional and energy efficient - and by this we mean each one able to be opened by less than three people, and  energy efficient in the way of not just keeping our heating bill down, but in preventing cold January air from blowing in!
