Trapolin-Peer Architects was selected by the Archdiocese of New Orleans to provide architectural services for the restoration of St. Stephen Catholic Church located on Napoleon Avenue in New Orleans.

The design team coordinated a thorough investigative process utilizing multiple external consultants to compile scoping documentation that identified the conditions of the building’s interior and exterior. From this report, the team developed the necessary methods to restore the building’s exterior envelope to prevent further moisture intrusion.

The project included restoration of the historic pine floors, repairing and restoring failing plaster walls, restoring the exterior envelope and facade, as well as replacing the mechanical system and interior and exterior lighting.
