Wharton-Smith, Inc.

Scope Of Work

The First United Methodist Church of Winter Park was built in 1926 and is listed on the national register of historic places. Constructing this three-story addition was a unique challenge because the City of Winter Park and the Historical Preservation ’s approval of the new building was contingent upon saving an existing wall of the historic church. Working in tight confines, the construction team was successful in saving in the wall and providing a new facility to  the growing needs of the ministry. The new 33,000-square-foot multi-purpose facility includes a multi-purpose room, gymnasium, classrooms, kitchen, offices, meeting rooms, storage and restrooms.
