Located at 212 E. Jefferson Street, the 18,600 square feet McCelvey Center Annex renovation work includes the upgrade of a concrete block and brick structure.
The original design for the Annex used a flat roof and block wall. Led by Darrell Watts with DWW Architects of Fort Mill, South Carolina, the renovation will install a pitched-hip roof and modern storefront windows, as well as a new water and sewer infrastructure.
To create a new look and feel, the interior of the scheme will feature sheetrock walls, custom millwork, six restrooms, and special storage rooms to house the Culture & Heritage Museums’ collections of art, archives and historical objects.
The renovation work will be done to complement the nearby historic buildings including the McCelvey Center. Upon completion, the building will house the Historical Center of York County, an archives and genealogical library, and the Southern Revolutionary War Institute.
The renovation work is scheduled to complete by fall 2013.
