The sun is shining on the domes of the newly completed St. George & St. Shenouda Coptic Orthodox Church
Promethean Builders provided general contracting services for a new 70,000 GSF church and multipurpose facility. The project features an all-steel frame structure, high-end interior finishes, and a complex exterior envelope utilizing numerous distinct materials.
The main campus features an elevator-equipped, three-story worship facility with a social hall located directly below the two-story main service area.
Alongside the main hall, a second four-story structure houses Sunday school classrooms, youth group meeting rooms, administrative office space, and a chapel. A third multipurpose facility includes a theater and a spacious, amply illuminated gymnasium designed for youth basketball.
