Completed in May 2008, this project used over 32 thousand square feet of thin cut limestone. This stone was affixed to three existing buildings to give them a finished look on a beautiful campus. These buildings were originally built from blocks that were made on site by students and faculty members in the 50's.

     If you didn't know these were block buildings to start, then you wouldn't be able to tell that they weren't built out of normal thick limestone. This project looks truly amazing.

We won the project of the year award from Masonry Magazine in the renovation category.

This project was done concurrently while we worked on the Arvest Ball Park in Springdale, AR.

    The cathedral group at John Brown University has a rich heritage. The John Brown University website has a considerable amount background information about these buildings. This includes interviews and videos. You can view this at http://www.jbu.edu/giving/cathedralproject/

These rennovations were also featured in the summer 2008 issue of Building Stone Magazine.
