Sacred Heart Basilica
University of Notre Dame
Notre Dame, IN
Located
adjacent to the Administration Building in the heart of the campus, the
building required extensive upgrading and renovation to lengthen the life of
the building, as well as to provide life-safety improvements. In the course
of the renovation process, limited areas of the building were modified to
provide new uses.
Improvements included a new roof, flashing and gutters, repair and tuck
pointing of masonry, window replacement and stained-glass repair, fire
sprinklers, new heating, ventilation, air conditioning and electrical
systems and lightening protection. In the course of the renovation, all of
the interior frescoes were restored, new carpeting was installed throughout
and the seating was repaired or replaced. New custom-designed lighting was
created at the column capitals and a new public address system was
incorporated.
Renovations were phased to maintain building operations throughout the
majority of the two year long construction process.
