Philadelphia, PA

Owner: Masonic Temple & Masonic Library and Museum
Architect: RLPS Architects

MBC provided extensive restorations to the Grand Ballroom at the historic Masonic Library & Museum. LED lighting packages replaced 16 chandeliers and illumination of the four main 16’ stained glass windows here and structural steel reinforcements were precisely installed to support a 2,700 lb. bronze statue of Ben Franklin atop a raised marble stage with a 21’ radius wall. Additional repairs included custom paint & tile restoration along with marble wainscoting cleaning & repair. Both men and womens restrooms were fully remodeled and an ADA-accessible bathroom was added.

Exterior sitework and a second bronze statue is also planned for installation.

Construction began January 2016 and completed Summer 2016.
